That's my to-do list. I can completely relate to this.

Morning friends! Great news for our milk customers (and new customers)! We have partnered with @3lees_farm to offer fresh cow milk and cream right here on the farm! You can pick up here or in Monticello. Wonderful time for the holidays to make homemade butter and cheese! For pet consumption only as per Florida Law (Master Feed License Z004639). Give me a call or send a message!

As I'm sitting here putting kidding dates on the calendar, I came across one of my favorite photos from last year's kidding. Just loved these blue and pink roans from Ygrette!#babygoats #babygoatsofinstagram #goatkids #nigeriandwarfgoats #goatsofinstagram

There is never any sneaking into the pasture!

When you are finally pumpkined out.

So proud of my Josephine taking reserve Grand champion! And I really love that both the grand champion, Haddie (who was my pick this season!) and my Josie are @3lees_farm bred! We are finished with show until next year! Now it is time to prep for kidding in January!#adga #nationalpeanutfestival #nubiangoats #dairygoatsofinstagram #dairygoatshow

Girls are bedded down comfortably for the night before their last show of the season! #nationalpeanutfestival #adga #nubiangoats

We've had the lowest turnout this season at show. I know that there are a multitude of reasons, but if we don't get our youth involved, we are going to eventually see this wonderful opportunity to show off the hard work we put into our herds fade away. We will lose the opportunity to display well bred dairy goats to the public. My favorite part of raising dairy goats is watching these kids work their animals before show, displaying them well in the ring, and spending the entire show earning their herdsmen awards. We need more of this!#adga #dairygoatshow #herdsman #dairygoatsofinstagram #4hyouth

Great job Breeze and Ethan! Breeze has always loved the ring and she has a special relationship with Ethan since he showed her for us last year too!#adga #northfloridafair #dairygoatsofinstagram #4hyouth

Off to the North Florida Fair. Come see us in the goat show barn if you are going to the fair now through Saturday evening! 4-H kids show tomorrow and we show Saturday! 🐐 🏆 And we will be at the National Peanut Festival Monday!#northfloridafair #adga #nubiangoats #dairygoats #nationalpeanutfestival

Half Stache was crashed out cold! Even putting a handful of acorns under his nose didn't stir him. He loves his chair!#bucklinglove #goatsofinstagram

The girls did well their first time in the ring. Teela didn't place this show, but Josie took third. I think the girls were glad to ride home. Josie managed to find her way under the barrier (of course she did) and spent much of the ride standing between the seats while Teela took Josie's spot on my armrest. I love these girls! Looking forward to seeing how they do in Tallahassee and Dothan! #nubiangoats #dairygoatsofinstagram #adga

The girls are tired of waiting for all the nigis to finish! 😁

The Juniors are off to the Georgia National Fair!

Breeze says she isn't in the mood to get show pretty this morning! She just wants to nap in her igloo.#dairygoatsofinstagram #nubiangoats

Josie insists she isn't supposed to ride in the back. She even fell asleep on the way back with her head on my arm rest. She is the epitome of a velcro goat.

She's up and about this afternoon! She went straight to the breakfast bar and when she realized breakfast was well over she went out to the pasture! She also ate a bunch of leaves and an animal cracker! ❤️🐐♥️

Meet Daisie May. I don't want to say that she is my favorite because we should love all of our kids equally, but she definitely holds a very special place in my heart. Daisie was here when I purchased the property. She was a wild wild girl. It was 3 years before she let me touch her. That was long hard earned trust. I call her my Zen goat. She looks like she has all the wisdom of the world in her eyes but she's keeping it a secret. I think she looks like a dragon when she sleeps. #meetourgoats #pygmygoats #goatsofinstagram

Prancie Pants and Buttermilk Biscuit wish you a swinging Monday! It was a beautiful morning and we're all excited that the weather is starting to cool!
