Never realized how much work is involved in sorting the goats for breeding! I knew you'd been busy but, wow, so much has been done since your last video. The A-Frames are really cool. Love your soap factory. So great that you can work with your daughter in your soap making. I'm happy that the drought broke and you have lots of green again. Looking forward to more goaty stuff.

You guys have been so hard at work! The pens look AH-MAZING! Can’t wait to see the new kids!

Champ: Little Bit, Cami & Abiliene Vader: Mayo, Maybelline, Dreamer, Lidi, Bessie & Birdie (I’m probably the most excited for kids out of Vader and Mayo as a pair! It’ll be a great match hopefully! 😍 And oh my gosh, Vader cracked me up when he was breeding Mayo. Like boy, calm down! 😂 And poor Dreamer, she literally was just standing there for a minute like “What about me? You don’t remember me from last year? I just want some love too. 🥺” Legend: May, Vouge, Daisy, Dinky, Wildee & Tippy (Very excited for Legend’s ladies as well since it is their first time having kids except for May. 🥰) Everest: Maddie, Made It, Cassie & Lillie Merle: Dawn & Lodi (I’d personally love to see Merle pair up with Little Bit again.) Lucky: Elsa Schillie, Roxy and Sky are going to be bred in the spring from my understanding. Maybe even Ruger and Ray since they most likely have grown quite a bit by then. I also felt a bit bad that Lucky only got Elsa since he’s getting older. (Lucky could maybe breed Sky, Schillie or Roxy later on. Obviously not Ruger or Ray since Lucky is their father.) And poor Elsa in the beginning, Lucky was acting a bit crazy but by the end, both of them love each other. And it’s good that Elsa is a dominant doe that can hold her own and likely can tell Lucky to back off when he needs to calm down. It was also very cute when Elsa was rubbing on him. I’m also awfully curious on how Little Bit changed from when she was the only doe that was bred with only one buck.

Wow Vader has grown!!! I almost didn't recognize him!! And speaking of grown, Emily and Daren are both adults!!! Very hard working adults!! The pens and structures look great as does the soap production area!!!! You guys have been busy, busy, busy!!!! The new soap could be named Blue Galaxy?!? Also it looks as though that 100,000 subscriber milestone is getting very close!!!! Best wishes that you reach that # and beyond very soon!!!! Stay safe!!!

Right!?? Just sayin! 🤪

[@cbviau1332]

I felt the same way about Vader when the gals were walking him to his breeding pen. He looked so much bigger: a real stud muffin. He sure has his "hands" busy this season. I hope we get to see more of him in action. And I hope May has an easier time kidding after being paired with Legend who is a much younger goat. I don't know if that makes any difference or not in the goat world but I hope so. May is one of my favorite goats at Blue Cactus and I feel for her because of her troubled deliveries in the past. And by the time she kids next year, she will be nine (9) years old. Like I said, I don't know much about goats, but Crystal does. And I'm sure she has her goat-children under control. Happy kidding, Everyone. This is really getting exciting: 50 kids on the ground come Spring?!@#* Holly cow!

[@OceanSwimmer]

BIG shout out to Derek for the hard work on the pens, fences, and A-frames outside, and the beautiful shelving system indoors...especially the Cooling Box! That's one great idea -- bet other soap makers would love to copy it. Darren, if you have been helping your dad with these projects, take a bow! These are Life Skills that will continue to improve and refine the more you use them. This country needs builders who innovate and improve conditions for goat herds, and carpenters who can create homes with adequate storage!

This video is better than Sunday football. With Emily's spins and Deric's hooks and blocks it's for sure a fun time. The buck's are entertaining especially love the lip smacking.

[@pooftiger]

Crystal, you need to make a solid charcoal bar of soap and call it RBF, then use Lodi's picture behind it.

[@lyndaperky4687]

I just finished watching the entire video since I arrived late. Derek and Darin the new long goat area is so streamlined and open for everyday needs and your wall design, for breeding, really addresses the buck issues. Crystal your idea to have one group of does breed later sounds good. It should keep your milk and soap production going. Have a great evening.

[@alyxguyer1819]

My favorite video of the year!! Can't wait to see the amazing combinations manifest into kids!

The A-frames are amazing. You did a very nice job putting your farm together. And your breeding choices are spot on! Looking forward to seeing the new babies. Your family is amazing you truly work together as a team. Very inspirational. Have a blessed day.

One more word: Crystal, I love the paint and decorative job you did on the papier-maché goat for the Nationals Auction! It will be a hot seller!

[@kimfrommn7162]

OceanSwimmer, I forgot to mention that I really love the painting/decorative job Crystal has done sonar on the papier-mâché goat for Nationals! But I already know the goat was a hot seller at Nationals! This is my second time watching the video! Congrats Crystal great paint job!! I also forgot to mention in my first comment, I'm real impressed with Derek and Darin's work on those A frame buildings! They are beautiful and you sure can tell the goats really like playing on them!! 🤗 I also forgot to tell Derek I loved him singing at the beginning of the tape!! It reminded me of your travels with delivering the baby goats! 🤗

[@OceanSwimmer]

Thank you, Crystal, Derek, Darren, and Emily for the great video! The visual block for the pens is a genius move; strong work, fellas! Breeding season is a very labor intense time, followed by Kidding....which will be demanding for you, Crystal. I'm happy to see you all looking happy and healthy. I pray the Lord blesses you with a beautiful productive year in 2022 - with great results for your breeding program. Crystal, thank you and thank your daughters for working so hard on the soaps! I like the name 'Moon and Stars' for your latest soap: what scent did you use for it? Trivia: there is a strain of Heirloom Watermelon called 'Moon and Stars' --- said to be very tasty! The skin is all green with bits of yellow dots, and big yellow moons. Check it out!

What an awesome video to watch! Great how the entire family works together in the Blue Cactus dairy! Great thinking adding the later breeding season, the two smaller doelings might just be ready to be bred by then as well and so, you won't miss quite an entire year for them. See, now you can keep more doe kids to increase the herd, having a spring and fall kidding :) Hugs, Jeff P.S. maybe your next venture could be goat milk hand lotion, it's one we buy here that really stops the hands from cracking/breaking open...hint hint :)
