Its Spring! The weather is warming up and I am getting ready to recieve the first of my 3 new goats. His name is Westwind Acres Da Vinci. He was born in august of 2010 out of the mini silky of the year. Mini Silky goats are so new that (I think) they do not have an official nationals or national champion. However the Old Dominion show in virginia serves as a nationals of sorts and from that show they name the winninist mini silky of the year and this is like a national champion. There is so much to learn from this new breed and I am so excited to be a part of it! My new hog paneling came in for me to reinforce thier sleeping area so they are even more protected than they are now. The next goat coming will be sol-orr's sugar pie. She is coming after May 1st. The last to arrive will be bear creeks petticoat. She is coming sometime in may and will arrive on an airplane.
Shows are coming soon. For our pygmy goat we will be attending the WCPGA futurity in may, the san diego county fair in june, WCPGA spooktacular in october and the valley of the suns for the mini silkies in october as well. We are hoping to add the orange county fair but we are not sure if we will be in town. With the support of the San Diego Pygmy Goat Association, I will be adding a new show for the mini silkies here in San Diego. Mini silky shows are hard to come by. Will see if anyone is interested in october at the valley of the suns show.
