Lonestar Sky Dairy Goats

Wow it has been too long since we have blogged but we have had some major changes.  In January of this year we moved our family and herd, including 9 pregnant does, from middle TN to TX.  The day we left TN there was snow and ice on the ground and more falling.  Not ideal conditions to be driving at all, let alone moving.  However,  with God's help we made the trip safely.  Although the 44+ acres we bought was completely fenced we have had to cross fence pen areas  for the herd, build multple barns hay feeders and a temporary milking facitlity.  Alot to do with just a month before our first doe was due to kid but we pulled it off. We were blessed with many beautiful kids this year, including 3 doelings from our first 2 AI breeedings!!  Katya and I have been busy making soap and lotion and hope to get a business started this fall.    This summer has been brutally hot and dry which has put a halt to our outdoor plans.  This fall/ winter we plan to expand our fenced pen areas and to construct a permanent milking facility.
