Today was one of those days when the goaties didn't know if they were coming or going. Should they go outside? Or should they stay indoors and munch on all that delicious hay?
Soon after milking, as I drove off to market, David reported that the heavens had opened and it was pouring with rain. So that made the decision for the girls ... obviously you can't get your ears wet and so they stayed firmly indoors.
The babies piled on top of each other, snoring away and dreaming little goatie dreams ..
Whilst a group of little white people decided that it was better just to all sit in a line ..
At milking time we had the mum-daughter combination of JoJo and Cleo come into the parlour next to each other. Very unusual to see them both together .. Cleo is just the spitting image of her mum.
And Daramac decided that he couldn't be bothered waiting outside for his dinner and decided to come into the parlour to see what was going on. Not quite brave enough to go up the ramp with the girls though!
From the North Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty we bring you the best milk, cheese and meat. Traditional responsible and ethical farming means free range access to grazing with all feed, including hay from our own ancient meadows, GM and chemical-free and blended by us.
We know the name and personality of every single member of our pedigree herd of happy healthy goats. We love - and thoroughly spoil – every one of them, male and female alike.
