Hi all,
We're finally starting to show a profit for all the work we've put into the farm.
I sold several of our kid goats and three lambs the other night with another ram lamb being picked up yesterday.
It was so great to be able to deposit that money into our farm account.
I've decided to concentrate on raising the hair sheep breeds. I have 7 Katahdin ewes, 2 are yearlings, and a gorgeous Dorper ram. I hope to have lambs out of him by this coming spring.
I'm still looking for St. Croix sheep to add those bloodlines to my herd.
I still have a few Toulouse and American Buff geese I would like to sell or trade for Pilgrim geese.
My gilt should be having her piglets in early April so if anyone is interested in great feeder piglets let me know.
I am also planning on going into the large breed dairy goats to start milking for the fresh milk.
A goal is to find a dairy (Jersey) cow that I can hand milk for us to have fresh milk for making butter and cheese as well as wholesome milk for us and the animals.
