Two new members for our herd!

DH and I drove to Midland, near Mt Pleasant, Michigan today and picked up two new registered boer percentage does.  They are very nice, very pretty, and best of all, they are already bred!  Yay!  Melody and Jeni are their names.  They were expensive...$350 each.  Their kids can be registered, but I guess there is a fee for that?  The seller said he'll be happy to register our doelings for $100?  We aren't familiar with the American Boer Goat Association, so we didn't know about that.  We hope to get involved in all the paperwork this year.  We have several registered goats now, so we hope to keep our herd growing nicely.  We love our grade does too, and enjoy having a wide variety of breeds around.  The boer will be our main focus though.

The new girls are out in their stall taking it easy.  We'll keep them separate for a few days at least.  We are confident that they came from a good home, so we aren't overly worried about sicknesses.
