I say this all the time and I mean it
you don't keep bucks around that long unless you are THAT HAPPY with their performance!!

Summer Breeding 2021? yes Fall Breeding 2021? still yes
After a short break from operations, we began putting our doe herd back together in May 2021. The girls came back from a couple of nearby farms. Some were fresh off of weaning and some came back already bred!! By October 2021, we brought in even more girls! Rather than pushing them all to conform to the schedules we normally run, we gave the does time to get into the swing of things before re-entering production. We will have a somewhat scattered kidding season before us now and that's alright!
It is a lie we have told ourselves for many years that we are going to "kid all at one time this year" and "every dam will be on the same schedule" um hmm, yeah right. At least this year we feel like we have good reasons.
In all seriousness, we take pride in what we produce. Whether for goats we intend to retain for our own breeding stock or goats we believe are worthy to offer to others, we believe in the lines we have developed here on Dean Hill. Indian Outlaw and Isaiah's Fire combine size and motherability, parasite resistance and good confirmation and it is our desire to continue to make these crosses in the future.
