We got a new goat today. Yesterday was a great collaboration- meet one of our clients!

We added a sweet new girl to the farm today! Meet Caramel! She came to us from our friends Mr. Andre and Mrs. Louise. She has the sweetest temperament but they had a little problem with her. You see, they've had problems with predators getting into their pasture and killing some of their livestock, so they added livestock protection dogs in with their herd. All of the dogs and goats get along fine, but Caramel had decided that she really liked to eat the dog food. They were having trouble with her gobbling up the dog food before the dogs were able to eat, so they offered her to us. Since we don't have to worry about dog food in the areas where the goats are, we were more than happy to add her to our herd.
We are always looking to add more great milkers, and we know she will be. Her mother is a big strong goat who is a great milker, so she should be a good milker too. She gave a good amount of milk as a first freshener this year, so next season should be even better.
So far, she is getting along well with everyone and no one is being overly pushy towards her. The introduction to the herd went very smoothly. The boys are excited to have a new goat also.
Yesterday, one of my wholesale clients came out to the farm. We have been collaborating on some products and yesterday we worked on a custom blend for some solid cologne for their line of products. It was fun going through the process of him narrowing down fragrances of essential oils then making blends until we came up with the perfect one. It's great to work with other creative people.
