| About Just Kidding Farm |
We Have a small Irrigated place in central WA
near Cle Elum on which we keep a few
Standardbred coach horses. The horses weren't
keeping up with the pasture, especially the
weeds, so several summers ago we purchased
some Boer Goats from several breeders in
Washington state.
We took two of them to an ABGA/USBGA show in
Western WA just to learn the ropes and where
pleasantly surprised with the results so we tried
a couple more shows and that was good too.
Besides winning some ribbons we met some
great people and learned a little about the
industry.
With our first few crops, we kept the does and
sold the wethers to the local 4h kids. That in
itself was a great experience. The wethers did
well at the 4H shows and we met some more
wonderful people in the industry.
Our place will sustain about twenty-five to thirty
permanent does without supplemental feeding
except in the winter. We are well above this
level now. The rest is for sale as breeding stock,
show stock, 4H wethers and dinner. We test our
heard annually for CAE and are negative.
