Classical Goats

I didn't realize it had been so long since I posted so here's a quick update: Sarah is currently deployed with the Oregon Guard but will be back late summer/early fall 2020 so Bill and Cari have been on full time "goat-duty." Classical Goats sponsored the 2019 Oregon State Fair Costume contest and will do so again in 2020, regardless if Sarah is home for it or not (unless it is cancelled due to COVID-19). We did have to cancel our spring visit to Willamette University for the Willamette Equestrian Club fundraiser but hope to join them again when students are back this fall. Remember to check out our friends at Gladdie Acres as well if you're considering this crazy ride called owning goats.

Classical Goats is proud to be sponsoring the Oregon State Fair All-breed goat costume contest this year. We sponsored it last year as well but it was only open to dairy goats. This year they've opened it to all goat breeds that are exhibiting at the Oregon State Fair.

I was in the barn yesterday trying to decide where I wanted to put the camera because Roo and Lena were due soon. All the sudden Roo started yelling and within five minutes the first kid (a boy) had arrived. About five minutes later he was joined by his litter sister. Two new adorable kids for Classical Goats.

Burnice and two of her three kids came home with us today. While she still belongs to Gladdie Acres until September, this will allow her to start bonding with us and her future herd-mates.

Back from Iowa and starting to get ready for kiddings. The first batch should be end of June when Lena and Roo kid. I haven't confirmed by testing but I am pretty sure Penny isn't pregnant.
