What's Happening....
Here are some of the exciting things happening at Windy Hill Farm....
October 2011 - 4th Annual Cream of the Crop Sale. WOW!! What a sale!! This was the best Kiko goat sale in the country this year. This event just keeps getting better & better. The free educational seminars are always informative & helpful. David was part of the Breeders Panel Session. It was great to renew friendships and make new ones over the weekend. We would like to thank everyone who purchased our goats at the sale. We still have a few goats left on the farm, so if you didn't get yours at the sale give us a call.
October 2011 - Sunday Afternoon on the Farm - Friends & family enjoyed a hayride around the farm. Later everyone visited our goats in the barnyard. Dinner was delicious with bbq goat & goat stew. We capped off the evening roasting marshmellows over the fire pit. How much fun! We love to take opportunities like this to share our goats with others.
September 2011 - We had five bucklings participate in the 2011 Oklahoma Buck Test this year. They finished the event with an total average daily weight gain of .26lbs, slightly above the group average. All five are for sale on the Buckling page.
Check out our article in the May 2011 edition of the GOAT RANCHER Magazine about Dorothy the Kiko Milk goat.
Did you read our article in the January 2011 edition of the GOAT RANCHER Magazine? It was all about Flopsie, Z01, and hot water bottles.
March 2011 - Poppy, A09, participated in a presentation program at a local high school. Money had been collected for a program that purchases goats for families in Sudan to help them improve their lives. The presentation was made & Poppy was the hit of the show. That scarf wasn't her idea...
December 2010 - We hosted Field Day for the Tennessee Master Goat Producer class held in Jackson in early December. 30 people participated in the hands-on session hosted by the University of Tennessee & our local state Extension Office.
October 2010 - We participated in the Cream of the Crop Sale in Corydon, Indiana. We sold 5 of our best doelings born this year, including 2 100% New Zealand doelings. We had a great time in Corydon, meeting new friends and seeing old friends. The seminars were informative and the quality of goats auctioned was outstanding.
October 2010 - The bucks are back from the Oklahoma Meat Goat Forage Performance Buck Test. We are PROUD to announce that Z62 was the 1ST PLACE WINNER with an average daily gain of .38lbs. We have named him AMOS MOSES, in honor of his father - Amos. Z17 was the 3RD PLACE WINNER with an average daily gain of .33lbs. His name will be Buffalo Bill. In addition, Windy Hill Farm won the 2010 HERDSMAN AWARD. We are so excited!!! This test shows "what they're made of". The busks spend 90 days with several other bucklings, under the same conditions, where they are rated based on their resistance to parasites and weight gain ability on forage only.
June 2010 - A local Wine Club met at Windy Hill Farm. 55 folks enjoyed food & wine as they mingled with the goats. Everyone left with a new perspective about KIKO goats and what we do on the Farm. It was so much fun!
