Gahama Goat Farm moved to
Western
Wisconsin in Bluff Country in the fall of 2008.
We did linear appraisal this past year and are very pleased with
many of our scores. All of the Toggs that were over 2 scored over
90 which is quite an accomplishment. Now comes the challenge of
continuing to breed that quality. In the Alpines, our spirited and
beautiful Camilla again scored a 91 at the age of 9. This is her 3rd
time to be appraised and her 3rd score of a 91 under
three different appraisers. I think this shows just what a strong
doe she is. She still is a very lovely doe. For the obers, I am
very proud of a young lady that as a Purebred scored an 89. She has
some shoulder problems but we are hoping to AI to a purebred in the
future and correct that. She, Cardinal*Hill AR Now, however, has a
lovely attached udder and tremendous depth of body.
My daughter is in charge of the Toggs and has her own herd name.
So any Toggs that you purchase will carry her herd name of
Country*Crowns.
My son passed away in January of 2009 at 13 in a car accident. He
really liked the color of obes and we started that herd to honor
him. The obers carry the herd name Gatlin’s Pride.
We hope attend what shows we can when time allows. We are fortunate
that
Wisconsin
sponsors as many as they do. We do heat treat colostrum and
pasteurize the milk that is fed to the babies.
All kids are routinely treated for coccidia.
We did get some pictures on the website this year. Some I like and
some I don’t but that will just give me another goal to shoot for.
Enjoy the website. If you have any questions, please feel free to
contact us.
