Beauties




Ok people here are piccies of the new goats. Gorgeous Anglo Nubians.

The black one is Bonnie, and he youngster is Flavia.
Ailsa and Flavia seem to have formed an instant bond.

They haven't settled in properly yet - Bonnie has to work out her place in the hierarchy.
The other goats are looking upon them with deep suspicion.

But look at those udders. Lot's a milk which once we have a clean milking area sorted, will be getting made into cheese. (For personal use - there's much more to do before we can start selling it).

Hurrah!

Hope the Black-Isle show was good. WE nearly went as well, but it seems less pressing somehow when you don't have any goats to buy...

Ah Nubians are such fun. Very friendly and generally eager to please. Also very vocal! You'll love making cheese, and don't forget about making cheesecakes.

I'm just making my first cheese from our own milk! Just a simple curd cheese to start...

Oh, the things to come!
