Camp Creek Kids Dairy Goats - CC Kids

Running River ZP Plague Doctor is looking for a new herd of ladies as we’ve retained a daughter of his this year, he has an excellent doeling average with 2 bucklings last year to 3 doelings and this year all 4 were doelings. Great milking lines with conformation to back it up, pictures of his quad doelings from this year, the blonde is looking for her new people as well.

Located in Springfield, OR.

We sold out yesterday, but have more milk available today if anyone wants some!
Raw milk that’s filtered and cooled quickly. $8/half gallon if you bring a clean jar to fill, $10/half gallon if you use one of mine with a $3 jar deposit (you return it for a refund or exchange for another next time).

This is Nubian goats milk, not “goaty” at all, these girls are fed free choice 3rd cutting alfalfa, horse quality hay, custom grain mix, minerals, and pasture forage.
Located in Walterville area off of Camp Creek Rd. Pickup only.

ADGA Nubian doe in milk and our last doeling of 2024!

Royale has been with us since August 2023 and is too much of an alpha for our small herd that already has a herd queen. I hand milk and she is easy to milk out, but does need one leg hobbled to avoid a kicking mess, she came to us with this bad habit and has improved but would need more time to hopefully correct it. I recently got a milking machine and she’s doing very well, no need to hobble her with it. Just freshened on May 10th and currently milking over a gallon a day. Clean tested twice since we got her, utd in vaccination and dewormed per f***l before kidding with a recheck f***l as well. G6s negative.

Doeling: Honeys Golden Manuka
Born 4-10-24
Dam: Covenant Farms Whisperin Honey
Sire: Running River ZP Plague Doctor

Bottle raised and super friendly Nubians and mini Nubians! Clean herd, all G6s negative by parentage, located in Springfield, OR.

Our first mini Nubians are here, both doelings will be bottle raised and looking for new holders once disbudded and tattooed for registration. F1 mini Nubians, dam and sires pedigrees in pictures. Located in Springfield, OR.

Miss decided not to wait until Friday to show us her pretty girls! She did a great job and had both without any assistance, wonderful for a first time momma! Oh, yeah, I’m not sleeping much again as the last picture is a bottle feeding alarm schedule, every 2 hours for 24 hours.

Well Royale wanted to bake this girl until she was just right, which she judged to be 157 days (normal gestation is 145-155). She came out beautiful with some help pulling as she was 10lbs at birth! She is being retained. 🥰

The girls are loving the Premier 1 teat bucket, we are using cold milk and frozen water bottles in it so they have access to fresh milk 24/7 while the cold milk helps keep them from over eating. Everyone is disbudded now and once the twins are tattooed I can get registration done on these kids 🥰

These girls are ready for new bottle holders now!

One of Breezes girls picked up a bad bacteria and was sick Wednesday night and into the morning, with lots of nursing (all night ❌😴🥱) and syringe feeding electrolytes and pepto we pulled her through it and she’s back with her sister now! Treating her with a course of antibiotics as well, she’s a fighter!

Honeys kids are growing like weeds and super sweet babies 😍🥰

Breeze told me she was ready today (due Sunday April 28th), so I got her maternity clip done really fast, put straw down for her, and then she wanted in the barn to be in her stall. She had twin doelings around 10pm, wonderful job Breeze! 🥰😍

🥰Baby Goat Season PSA 🥰

So you’re seeing all these cute babies out there, bottle babies and dam raised kids galore! You want one? Of course you do, they’re irresistible!

Well before you try talking your significant other into letting you bring home that baby read this.

What purpose do you have for that goat? Pet, brush clearing, milk for household uses or crafts?

If you’re looking for pets or brush clearing a pair or three of wethers (neutered males) will be perfect and you won’t have to worry about unplanned pregnancies or a doe screaming every 21 days during breeding season.

For any milk purposes you will of course need does/doelings and a buck or access to one, remember to be safe when outside breeding and have bio security screenings (CL, CAE, Johnes) done for yours and theirs. Also keep in mind your buck will require separate housing, they should not be kept with does and kids year round. Does require more feed and care than wethers, especially true when pregnant or milking (lactating). I advise you start with wethers first to learn basic goat care before getting does, fact is I won’t sell does to people with zero goat experience.

Here’s a big one, it costs the SAME to feed quality goats, whether registered or not, and backyard mutt goats. If you’re starting out with breeding in mind please look into the book Storeys Guide To Raising Dairy Goats and read it through, paying attention to the section about improving the breed/herd you choose by breeding goats that will improve imperfections in the next generations.

Okay, last one for today. Bottle babies, they’re so cute, but they need to have milk for 10-16 weeks, not 4. We don’t wean bucklings until 10-12 weeks and doelings 14-16 weeks. Don’t get just one, they need a goat buddy, herd animals don’t feel safe alone and they need to play with other goats. Humans rough housing with babies makes for aggressive adult goats, don’t allow any behavior as a kid that you don’t want a 150lb goat doing to you.

There’s so much to learn about goats, I hope you enjoyed this PSA, now go learn more!!

Honey is doing a great job keeping ahead of the kids milk demands even while dealing with a mild case of milk fever and an infection that set in yesterday (started antibiotics last night per veterinary advice). We’ve had her under close watch since kidding with how difficult it was on her.

Honey out getting some extra browsing time and some really cute doelings 😍🥰

Well, that was a long drawn out ordeal. Poor Honey had very spaced out and nonproductive contractions so I had to go in and reposition the first kid (presented head only and I had to get a leg forward and help pull) second was head and one leg but she just wasn’t pushing so I had to help pull that one too, third she got out by herself with me catching. Took those 3 in to get warm, came back out and milked Honey for colostrum, went back in to warm babies and get them taking bottles, went back out to check Honey and give her some pain meds and she had a surprise for me, number 4! She ultrasounded with 3 so I thought she was done. I got barn chores finished around 3:30 am and have an hour of sleep so far. ALL GIRLS! Honey will be retiring early as that’s both years that I’ve bred her we had to pull kids, too hard on her. I’m watching her closely for any complications now.

Straw is down and two hour checks are on for the night, Honey has been in prelabor today and likes to kid in the middle of the night. Time for a quick nap before next check, wish us luck!

It won’t be long now! Honey is due April 11th with triplets and we plan to have bottle babies ready once they’re a week old! Anyone looking for good milking and show stock with super sweet personalities let us know! All purebreds and G6s negative by parentage. Clean herd, does have recent clean tests!

The girls are looking a tad bit pregnant these days, Honey has just under a month left now and Breeze just over a month. Spring is coming!

The sunshine is out again today and the boys wanted a spotlight post just for them!
