    You guys!! Every single beautiful comment is making me cry! 😭I've been a wreck for weeks over all these changes with the goats and to know you all understand and are supportive is just the best! Winston will be a great friend for Zorro, and Willow & Winnie will be so loved here and will get plenty of stumps 😂Fun fact I didn't mention in the video...Wally (Willow's other buckling we sold as a wether) has perfect legs, too 👍🏻so all is well with him. Let's look forward to the new doelings coming to the farm in April & May (yes, there are two of them:) and we'll start fresh with some new milking lines for the farm!

    You can't make everyone "happy, happy, happy" all of the time. Hard decisions and bad news are a part of life. In the end, this is your farm and the animals are your responsibility and therefore, it's your decision and people should be respectful of that.

    It must be so incredibly herd to let go of an animal that you’ve raise since the beginning, and then, you find out that one of you most beautiful lines has a genetic problem and can be bred on.😭🥺 And for that reason you have all my support! ❤️

    So, is Winston going to be a pen buddy for Zoro, or be free to roam now? Also, PLEASE keep Elsa!! She's such a sweet pig.

    I am so sorry for all the recent decisions you have had to make to your herd. What a beautiful loving line to lose but it is the correct decision as a breeder. Glad you are keeping them.

    It's sad to see stella go but she will go to a great home with her baby and allow you to focus more on the other goats and at least Luna got to raise her until she had her own baby and now Luna can continue being a grandmother to all the other babies on the farm and be the only queen👑. I'm sad that Penny's line won't continue but when you take care of animals especially animals that provide for your family and others you need the best and this is not only because you need the best looking herd but also because you need healthy goats and continuing pennys line would just he selfish. On a happier note Kevin playing with Salem is so cute and funny😂.

    That's a lot of missed milk opportunities having all those pets. We love them but sure would understand if you sold them, in the future, for pets, and started new lines. It's your home and know what's the best for you all. It's so hard and we have your back whatever you decide. 💕

    Very proud of you for doing what you feel is right.! And for sticking by your decisions 100%. I agree with your effort to prevent breeding genetics that potentially cause the animals health issues later on in life. It's not fair to take that chance - and the animals bear the brunt of those health problems. Thank you for considering future generations, and the overall health of the animals in your charge. Wish more people considered that over the "cute things" and "sentimental emotions". Much respect to you!!

  • @ancimargarita2763
    @ancimargarita2763 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    When you are a responsable person, even more, a loving and responsable person, you make the decisions that have to be made for the best. You put aside your feelings, your hopes and you do what HAS to be done. You are courageous, specially because we all know how much you love each of your little animals, and taking these decisions has surely been one of the hardest you have made. And that is why I admire you and your family. You are honest, and you do care, you really care, the kind of care that is important, the kind of care that is the best for all and that makes a difference. So do not mind what others say, mind what your heart and intelligence tell you, because you are doing an amazing job, and one can see it and feel it and enjoy it in every video you put up. Lovely family, thank you. I respect you.

    Such a shame about the Willow line, those were some incredible milking lines. Good to know that the three of them will still be very loved and almost certainly spoiled on the farm, though!
