"Thank you, Naomi, for all of us. For us personally (my goats and me), it is likely behind us. We finally got rain early Friday morning, along with a lightening storm. It didn't clear the air as much as one would expect that…"
"Glenna, I just read what you replied. Have you gotten rain yet? Any relief in your area?

"I've not seen it mentioned, but an important fact is how will you can milk. The best producer is going to go "downhill" quickly if she is not milked out at each milking. Also, how relaxed both the goat and you are is a…"
"If you want goats for milk, buy only registered does from proven dairy lines.Regarding length of time milking, that will vary from goat to goat. For first fresheners, I suggest breeding them again in the fall and drying them up early.…"
"Thank you ever so much! I certainly hope all are well."
"That's a relief! Thank you for sharing!"
