I bred my 9 yr old she is in great shape and a very Hardy doe and we’re actually afraid that if she doesn’t have kids that she might get really sad her favorite time of the year is kidding and raising. I feel like it 100% depends on the girl and her maternal instincts, her condition attitude, etc. I agree with your decision girl.

Hey Chrystal and Emily....loving the nails Emily, a beautiful colour. Especially now your not bottle feeding you can have fancy nails. Was awesome to see a photo shoot in action and how you go about taking the pictures. It's just so lovely that Emily enjoys doing this with you also. There are many things Crystal that I massively respect about how you are with everything about your goats. One of the big ones was totally highlighted in this video. The fact that even though your golden girls are healthy and capable of being bred this year your not doing it. Granted I know your keeping your numbers lower for kidding season as this year was a lot on you and the whole family....but I loved it how you said they have done their job and done enough. The golden girls sure looked like they were having a blast. Love you guys and im super excited when I see a new video from Blue Cactus. I hope your guys are having a bit of a rest this weekend and maybe even some fun together away from the build. Take care and hugs to all 💜xxxx

Do all of your soaps have Coconut Oil and Shea Butter in them? I am allergic to those things, but I’m very interested in your soap. I’ve never used goat soap. I have very sensitive skin and get eczema on my hands if I use the wrong soaps. Heck I can’t even use the blue dawn dish soap which is crazy to me bc that’s what they use on most animals. Was just wondering if goat soap would be better for my skin.
