Bohemian Heart Workshop

 Am I a goat farmer? Or a goat rancher? Honestly, goat farmer sounds more entertaining. I farm goats. They grow from seeds and I feed and water them until they're big enough to sell. Technically, that's very true. Yep, goat farmer, it is. These little dingbats keep me on my toes. However, since my personal life has been turned upside down, they also provide a great distraction from all the negativity in our lives. We were blessed with 8 healthy baby Boers on this goat farm in the last week of September. 8 healthy babies. We had the unfortunate circumstance of losing the first 2 as they were stillborn. They were a bit too early and a bit too small, born sleeping. However, with my "expert" non-existent YouTube midwifing skills - 8 more kids were brought into this world.

No matter what it's called, I hope you enjoy taking a peek at my goats and my sweet baby girl! @madmarymcleod #capcut #goatsoftiktok #goats #goatfarm #homestead #inthecountry #goatkids #faintinggoats #livestock #nibblers ♬ original sound - M&M&M Winter... This winter has been incredibly rough for us North Dakotans. I'm sure everywhere in the midwest is feeling the pain that comes with mountains of snow every few days. And we're getting pretty stir-crazy.  This fall, we decided we'd start breeding Boer goats. Well, when we began and brought our first two babies home, the weather was BEAUTIFUL.  It was forecasted to be a decent winter as well, so we did...
