Well, here they come a . . . walking. Tried to get the whole herd of our new Kinder goats come a runnin' down the hill, as they usually do, but instead they take their dear sweet time walking. . .
The big one is Coral-Belle. She is our provider of cheese, yogurt, and milk.
. . . Any day now. . .
The black kid in lead is our little buckling, Aladdin.
Aaand snack break. From left to right is Aladdin, Angelica, Marguerite, Mallow, and Coral-belle.
Marguerite, following Angelica in the lead.
Despite the fact that they decided I'm not the point of their destination this time, Kinders are VERY sweet, loving goats.
And isn't Coral-belle just gorgeous? Those spots are amazing!! We're getting delicious cheeses, milk, and yogurt off her right now, and are also hoping she's pregnant, due for some babies come Christmas.
If there's one thing I'm certain of with goats right now, it is that I LOVE the Kinder breed! Far more than La Manchas. They're very freindly, laid-back, not the trouble makers most goats can be, produce an amazing amount of milk for their smaller size, and have an extraordinary 6-10% butterfat in their milk, which allows for MORE cheese!!
