On April 18, 2015, my family and I got three new additions to our family farm, JNRfarms, three kids (baby goats)!\u00a0 The breed of all three are Alpine; we chose this breed for a couple of reasons.\u00a0 For one, they produce great milk.\u00a0 The milk tastes great and tastes practically the same as cow’s milk, with only a slight after-taste, that you really have to look for.\u00a0 As a small farm that is continuing to grow, we want goat’s milk that tastes good so we can sell it, and make other products with it, like cheese, because expanding not only what animals we have but also what products we have available will help us grow our farm.\u00a0 Secondly, they have one of the nicest coloring out of all the different goat breeds, at least, we thought so!\u00a0 And, their ears were also a deciding factor because they make them even more adorable and cute!\u00a0 Simply, we fell in love with the Alpine breed for multiple reasons, so we just had to go with this breed.<\/p>\n

Now it’s time for the official introduction to our goats.\u00a0 My goat is named May.\u00a0 Her hair is mostly white with some black in it.\u00a0 She is oldest of our goats, although only by a day, being born on March 29th of this year, making her, along with the rest almost three months old.\u00a0 She is friendly, curious, and sweet but watch out because she loves to nibble on your clothes!<\/p>\n

Next there is Josie, my sister Rachel’s goat.\u00a0 Her hair color is a mixture of dark brown and black.\u00a0 She was born on March 30th of this year; she is also curious and friendly but is definitely the most easy-going of our goats and loves to give kisses.\u00a0 But don’t turn your back on her because she will nibble you!\u00a0 She loves to eat too (and practically never stops!) and has been joked about a little because she has gotten a little <\/em>chubby lately…<\/p>\n

Last but not least there is Chloe which is everyone’s goat.\u00a0 She is practically all black with only a little white on her.\u00a0 She was born on March 30th of this year and is Josie’s sister; May is a half-sister to Josie and Chloe since they all share the same father.\u00a0 She is the most dainty and gentle of our goats but is a great jumper.\u00a0 And whenever family or friends come and see the goats, Chloe is usually the favorite.\u00a0 Sorry Josie and May…<\/p>\n
