What we do with your Christmas tree
People have been dropping off Christmas trees for us to feed to the goats. Dealing with the trees is normally our biggest task to carry out each January. This video shows what happens to the trees.
Unwell over new year
Ant, one of our Saanen billy goats was a bit unwell over new year. We was off his food for a few days. He had the runs but for only one day only. The runs can sometimes we sigh that an animal has worms so we gave him and the other two goats in the paddock with him the parasite treatment. He made a slow and gradual recovery and is now fine and dandy.

And the winner is....
Last autumn we asked people to come up with suggestions for the name of our new ram. About 150 sent us their suggestions. The final result is that he is called Rambo! Thanks to everyone who took part.
