Kids kids kids! Yes, we’re hoping for multiple! Goat kids, that is. 🙂  Prada is pregnant and, by the looks of her, due anytime!

We exposed her to herd contributor Candyman from late February to late April (he was on property with us from 2/22-4/25) and in the last month her udder has ballooned.  The development of the udder was the surest sign to us that she was successfully bred. Compare these photos, taken less than two months apart.

What do you do with goats? Do people raise them for the milk? I see lots of people raising goats and keep wondering what you do with them.
We raise for showing/breeding … the milk is bonus, you can make cheese or soap with the milk. They are wonderful animals!
