We ALLLLLL know that if any of us faithful blue cactus dairy goat watchers and fans would have been the judge, all of their goats would have won. ☺️ y’all have some outstanding goats!
Very good reminder that no matter how your goat places in any particular show, the next show could have very different results, even against the same goats. Each judge looks for something different so never get discouraged by one show.
When you were being final lined up with Everest, I knew the judge was placing you first. I see that goats don't care when they're first like horses do lol. Major props to your whole family for getting back to life.
You guys absolutely amaze me with all the many things you do with your goats and even making soap. You have a wonderful family and everyone is on the same page like a very well oiled machine. Love your videos ❤
You had an awesome team . Emily and Darren you are my heroes. Crystal well done with your does and great win Mayo.. Derrrick thanxx for your background commentary. All in all Blue Cactus are a great team with their goats. God Bless
Not sure how I missed this video, but finally got to watch it. How exciting. Congratulations to Mayo! But all your goats are gorgeous. Darren and Emily did a great job. Awesome to see their excitement in the whole process. Absolutely loved Derrick's play-by-play! The end when you got home was Oscar-worthy!
Good job Mayo! You will always be Grand girl!! All the goats did great 👍 The kids did awesome showing the goats, and it’s obvious they know what they are doing!
Derek's "winners speech" he pretended that Mayo would have said - if she could talk - was hilarious! 😂 That was very interesting to see what happens at a goat show, thanks.
This was so interesting. I was involved in dog shows for many years and in some ways this is similar. The main difference, however, is the dog show judge never comments on why he/she selected a certain dog over another. If he/she is asked they will say it's because they meet the standard for that breed. BTW, your husband should be a news reporter. He's really good at it.
Reasons are given in dog shows in the FCI countries, but typed. Reasons make or break a judge and I wish so much AKC (American Kennel Club) conformation show judges would be required to give reasons. I would then love to judge, as I think they are sadly missing a great opportunity to educate without giving just basic reasons. It also educates you as to what style animal the judge prefers when you hear their reasons.
Going back through your vids. Sorry those mishaps happened. But still sharing things like this helps others. So proud of your human kids❣️This was a great real world learning experience. It’s so cool.
Thanks for the video, really good.When I was a child we were on a hobby farm with about ten Saanen goats, the 2 bucks were big & smelly and loved fighting each other, seeing the saanen buck at that show reminded me.
Such a great family atmosphere and such a great family team! You are making memories which is teaching discipline and competition! I applaud you in today’s time!! You are great parents! .. I love your channel and I love goats ! I was raised with them ! My next door neighbors raised them for dairy too! We all had to help! They had a lot of farm animals ! We just had pigs !
Whooo Hooo way to go beautiful Mayo! She is so sweet! Love that video of her going to the milk stand! Yeah!!!!! Can’t wait to see more birth videos. Congratulations! Emily was so serious when she was the ring steward!
Congrats Mayo takin after her mama must have been tough this year with so many beautiful goats kinda laughed when lucky came out and was like nope not today what a luck buck
From 🇬🇧. New to your channel and finished watching a backlog of kidding videos. I have never watched a goat show before. Thank you for getting me so into this. I am a dog lover but you have me so into this now. Thank you. I found your channel from a subscriber from weed n reap who I found from lumna acres. However what I am loving about your channel is learning about heritage and how you breed and keep lines etc etc. Again thank you from a middle aged disabled lady in UK. You are lifting my spirits in this tough time we are all facing 💗
I have been looking all week for a video with what happened at the show! Good job Mayo!! Hope it’s not another week before we get another video! Miss you guys when there’s no videos
I was very excited for the video on this, but I was not expecting a full hour one!~ This absolutely made my day. Congratulations again to Mayo and the kids did such a great job in the ring! (Two-footed and four.)
Okay .. I have to add that LILi is one of the most beautiful goats! She should have placed 2nd to Mayo! Love ... Love ... Love her! Can’t wait to see Lodi in the shows!
I loved this video, can't wait for the next one, the children did fabulously and Derek did a fab job of commentating lol Emily is the double of her dad in every way lol :) see you soon and well done
CONGRATS Mayo !! My 1st time seeing a Goat Show. I have been to Dog Shows as my friend breeds Show Pugs, but this was as fun! They all looked really good. Thanks for this behind the scenes adventure!
Wow, Congratulations Mayo, and all of them. You can tell you work with your goats, they are all well behaved in the ring. Great video, it took me 2 days to watch it all but it's worth it. Derrick did a great job MC'ing it all :)

Well done all of you including the club for hosting under such windy an trying times. Good job goaties.

I have been watching all of the goats since they were born
You are really good at delivering those baby kids
Very good reminder that no matter how your goat places in any particular show, the next show could have very different results, even against the same goats. Each judge looks for something different so never get discouraged by one show.
Proud of your children with their showing. God bless you from Michigan ❤
Congratulations, Mayo. ☆☆☆
When you were being final lined up with Everest, I knew the judge was placing you first. I see that goats don't care when they're first like horses do lol. Major props to your whole family for getting back to life.
Why didn't they get a ribbon for Everest placing first, I must have missed something, my apologies.
Very happy to see normal life.
You guys absolutely amaze me with all the many things you do with your goats and even making soap. You have a wonderful family and everyone is on the same page like a very well oiled machine. Love your videos ❤

Congratulations to all of you, so much fun watching you. ❤️. My frst dog show I choked out the dog and left the ring in tears. Lol

Congratulations 🎊 to you all and I am soooo Happy for you and your families ✝️ 💖
Awesome show!
Congratulations to Mayo!
Thanks for sharing!!! Have to say all the goats was just beautiful ❤❤
Best In Show reminded me just how small Nigerian Dwarfs are. I know it's in the name, but you kind of forget until you see them next to a Nubian.
Or a saanan 😂 alpine bucks too. Holy smokes. You can ride them to battle!
I was surprised at the sizes, too!
Yes! That was a good demonstration. The brown doe to the left of Crystal was gorgeous!
Thanks for the video, really good.When I was a child we were on a hobby farm with about ten Saanen goats, the 2 bucks were big & smelly and loved fighting each other, seeing the saanen buck at that show reminded me.
