So sorry for the loss of a couple of your babies! 😢 I do love the ones your going to hold on to. I'm afraid I'd want to keep them all! Looking forward to see how the develop!
its so sad to see the two that died, but at least that you kept a few of the doelings~ i cant wait to see which bucklings you will retain, if any, i hope that you will keep at least one of Luckys sons~
I know you know how to pick according to who the parents are and what you expect them to turn out to be …. But I like them all! They are all beautiful little goats! Great video. Thank you for sharing your life and goats and knowledge with the rest of us! Blessings from OKC Grandmother
Yay! I'm excited to see how Tippy's does grows out and freshens to potentially find out if Tippy gave her her high butterfat milk trait... Ah and Maddie's doe! All are very nice look'n doeling!😃👍💙🌵🐐
Sorry you lost a few that is always hard. They're all so beautiful ❤️ I know it was hard to make a choice of which ones to keep I love the choices you made they're all gorgeous. One of my favorites was always Dinkies black one with extensive White overlays that one is just gorgeous whoever gets her will be blessed I hope you get to have pictures of her as she grows I would love to see her grown up I bet she grows up to be beautiful with her markings . God bless yall.
Great picks! They are all beautiful kids. You know how they say, “you reap what you sow,” (shout out to DaNelle!❤)? Your hard work reflects in this amazing herd. Well done to you and your family!
Great picks. Was hoping you'd keep Maddie's and Wildee's but am super excited you chose Tippy's doeling as well. Hard choices they are all such fine doelings.
This year was unusually different! But it seemed less stressful for you Crystal, I know you are preparing for when the kids are grown and moved out, they just keep growing up don’t they?! I pray you’ll settle into a relaxed way of life for you and Derek, and everything flow’s exactly the way you want it to……we are trying to navigate as well, and I completely understand! The kids (goaties)are gorgeous!! Love the ones you’ve retained!! Hugs from Florida!!
So glad you’re keeping Maddie’s doe! I was hoping you would keep a kid from Maddie ever since Emily started assisting in her births. The rest of the does are so lovely, too.
Crystal all that babies are so gorgeous!!! I'm so happy with your choices that you are keeping. I hope you are keeping a Lucky buckling!!!! I'm nervous which senior does you are selling.😢🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐❤❤
My favorite is Lodeye's chocolate doe. Pepper's chocolate blue-eyed doe is adorable, too. Dinky doe polled blue-eyed doe is gorgeous. Hard to pick which ones I would love to have. ❤
Crystal, the doelings are all beautiful --- every single one. Crystal, I would like to see you do a brief talk about the criteria and strategy you employ to choose which kids you keep. You probably have different principles regarding which mature does you sell. Every kidding season I am impressed with your knowledge about each doe, her "pattern" of behavior when she's in labor, and the trust the does have in you while you attend their births. I think it's a real gift. Can't wait to see the bucklings! 💕🏡💕
These kids are so funny, their side fighting moves are something that is like only Michael Jackson would do. Those are some beautiful Doelings this year. I love the ones having black socks on all feet. ❤
My mind is swimming! How do you keep all the info on the kids in your head? You present it beautifully. Enjoy your channel and love to watch the goaties to relax me. Love to all of you ❤
I was hoping you would keep a Wildee doe and a Daisy doe! They are both stunning goats (in my opinion at least lol I’m a backseat dairy goat person. 😂)
I sure would love a video explaining coat patterns and names while using your girls as examples! It's very confusing to me and you're such a great teacher....in fact I've learned most of my knowledge from you sharing your knowledge! Lol!! We just love y'all!!🤗🤗
Ufff great choices. I thought bessie doe would make the cut too. Amazing batch of kids. I am just waiting to see which senior does make the cut this year 👀👀. Aaaaah
I’m just curious. How do you know if someone put their name in the drawing, that their set up to raise the kid. I have a feeling you been doing this a long time and know what your doing. I just love your goats so much.
When did you switch to doing your CD&T IM rather than Sub Q? We learned to give this vaccine from one of your previous videos. It leaves a nasty reaction lump, so I would love to do it another way if that is better! Thanks!!
I know what you should do with Princess May this year. When she is not in heat, introduce her to Aragon , and explain to her that he is worthy of her. He has more grand championship wins, more best in show wins and she should allow him to breed with her. 😅😅😅
How often do you give the goats that ? Just twice? After the booster just curious and I'm sure you have explained it many times im just getting old and forget stuff.... nay not that old just forgetful. They are all beautiful and handsome
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats 👍🏻 thanks for answering back I know you've been busy with all of those goat babies 🤗 I glad you pick those does have a good night
You kinda shocked me when you didn't choose Cassie's doeling. Blue-eye, polled, and moon-spotted I thought she was a shoe-in. lol Not that the ones you chose aren't also beautiful. You got a very flashy set of babies :)
It's not about color, it's about genetics. I raise dairy goats and just because they are absolutely adorable doesn't mean they are going to be a good dairy animal, although it is a plus.
I agree to this but I really wanted to keep Cassie's doe this year. She was born way later than most though and she will grow into an amazing dairy goat! I wouldn't sell a goat I thought otherwise. They would be a cull :)
It is a generational thing. The first time one of the line meet the milk star requirements, they are a 1*. If one of their daughters meets the requirements she is a 2*. The higher the number of stars is the number of mother to daughters who have earned their stars. 😊 A star B buck is born with his title from his mother having a milk star and his dad's mother has a milk star.🎉
I’m shocked that you can’t show vaccinations. What could possibly be wrong about teaching this on animals or for teaching medical personnel with humans?
I'm so excited for who you have kept this year!! All the doelings are GORGEOUS❤Can't wait to see if you retain a buckling haha😉
So sorry for the loss of a couple of your babies! 😢 I do love the ones your going to hold on to. I'm afraid I'd want to keep them all! Looking forward to see how the develop!

Yesss! I knew you were going to keep that Maddie doe! She’s so beautiful!
Yeah that’s the one Emily helped in her birth 😊 gotta KEEP THAT ONE FER SURE 😊
That's the one I want to name Mystique 😊
Beautiful does !! So sorry about the passing of some . 😓
Thank you!
i love all the new doelings that your keepping, im so happy your keep the first one you showed us because she so darn pretty

Runway models the lot of them🤗

Thank you for showing all the doelings. They are beautiful❣️❤️🥰
The Maddie and Legend doe was always my favourite. You’ve done so good this year!
Must be hard to choose which ones to keep. They are so beautiful
Yay! I'm excited to see how Tippy's does grows out and freshens to potentially find out if Tippy gave her her high butterfat milk trait... Ah and Maddie's doe! All are very nice look'n doeling!😃👍💙🌵🐐

Pretty babies!
Oh my goodness, they are all so beautiful! You made a great choice with who you are keeping around longer! So sorry about your losses.
Was so surprised you didn’t keep Cassie’s doe! My favorite is Maddie’s doe. Wow, GORGEOUS!!
I guessed five of the does you are keeping ! Made it’s doe is unreal
@@SabbathAcresRanch made you look then
I love the one that is brown and on her face she has blaze and a pink nose she’s so cute
Great picks! They are all beautiful kids. You know how they say, “you reap what you sow,” (shout out to DaNelle!❤)? Your hard work reflects in this amazing herd. Well done to you and your family!
Awe bath time 😊all cute can't wait to hear which ones you are keeping ❤❤❤
Wow look at the lines on that black doe!
Great picks. Was hoping you'd keep Maddie's and Wildee's but am super excited you chose Tippy's doeling as well. Hard choices they are all such fine doelings.
Wow the lines on some of those girls
Beautiful babies
Yupa Maddies' doe! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Everyone is beautiful
Some very beautiful does this year

Now comes the hard part! Sending the kids to their new homw
Im so glad you kept abilenes baby, great pick
Great choices! I'm eager to see how they grow!
Tippy's doelings look amazing! Glad you're retaining her 😊 i will probably watch this video a dozen times 😂😂
My favorite is Lodeye's chocolate doe. Pepper's chocolate blue-eyed doe is adorable, too. Dinky doe
polled blue-eyed doe is gorgeous. Hard to pick which ones I would love to have. ❤
And dreamers ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ little doe ❤❤❤
Dreamer and Vader's doeling is my favorite, she has the sweetest look on her face ❤
You are amazing, thank you.
I’m so excited!! I hope she keeps a few of the flashy bucks
Crystal, the doelings are all beautiful --- every single one.
Crystal, I would like to see you do a brief talk about the criteria and strategy you employ to choose which kids you keep.
You probably have different principles regarding which mature does you sell.

Can't wait to see the bucklings! 💕🏡💕
They are so beautiful and gorgeous 🎉❤🙏💕💯👏💯😍💪🤩👍💯👏💕
All of them are so pretty 😍🤩
And would look beautiful next to a new swiss buckling ❤
These kids are so funny, their side fighting moves are something that is like only Michael Jackson would do. Those are some beautiful Doelings this year. I love the ones having black socks on all feet. ❤
So will Lodi's new chocolate doe be like Lidi? Silver underneath? Oh I can't wait to see!
She is VERY silver underneath. It went away on Lidi as she got older though. I suspect the same for this girl :)
My mind is swimming! How do you keep all the info on the kids in your head? You present it beautifully. Enjoy your channel and love to watch the goaties to relax me. Love to all of you ❤
Yay! You’re keeping the Maddie doe❤️ I’m so excited to see them all grow😊
I must have a good eye. You chose the ones I picked out! Lol😊
Haha! Awesome! I wanted to keep more.. but I already kept too many!
Have you come up with some names for the kids your retaining? Haha I’m exciting to see what unfolds. Stay awesome. ❤
Kinda!
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats hope Whisper for Wildie's doe as Emily wanted it last year
Omg dinkeys 2nd doe omg I love her I want her sooooooo much ❤❤❤❤❤ I
Great picks. They are all so beautiful. ❤
I was hoping you would keep a Wildee doe and a Daisy doe! They are both stunning goats (in my opinion at least lol I’m a backseat dairy goat person. 😂)
SO excited about the does I'm keeping!
Some beautiful doelings this year I'm looking forward to seeing them grow up. I'm also glad your keeping an abilene baby.
And rays doe I love them ❤❤❤❤❤
You guys are so amazing
Absolutely love your black and white gals! It harkens back to my love of 101 Dalmatians as a child 😂 gorgeous gorgeous kids!
I always wondered how you bathe the goats. I always want to give our baby girl a bath.
Omg and mias doe omg I’m in love ❤❤
And daisy doe omg I wish I can have all of them ❤❤❤❤
I sure would love a video explaining coat patterns and names while using your girls as examples! It's very confusing to me and you're such a great teacher....in fact I've learned most of my knowledge from you sharing your knowledge! Lol!! We just love y'all!!🤗🤗
i knew it!!! as soon as i saw emily cuddling that maddie doe i knew she was staying!!
And daisy other doe ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love this video great pics and retaining picks! Did Cassie have a buckling? I didn’t see him on there but I might’ve missed him.
They were just talking about the doelings here. A video about the bucklings should be out soon.
Wow layas doe!
Hi Crystal, beautiful kids. With all the black and white kids, I don't know how u know whose kid is who's. Lol
Daisy doe your keeping, a cute name “
Dairy Me”
Crystal that's a hard pick
I had a feeling you would keep Maddy’s doe she is gorgeous. Good choices.
Ufff great choices. I thought bessie doe would make the cut too. Amazing batch of kids. I am just waiting to see which senior does make the cut this year 👀👀. Aaaaah
Yeah!!!!
Img and beseys doe omg 😱 ❤❤❤❤
I’m just curious. How do you know if someone put their name in the drawing, that their set up to raise the kid. I have a feeling you been doing this a long time and know what your doing. I just love your goats so much.
I don't sell my goats to people I don't feel are "fit." :)
I figured that much. You love your goats. I know you been doing this a long time. For some reason I got worried.
When did you switch to doing your CD&T IM rather than Sub Q? We learned to give this vaccine from one of your previous videos. It leaves a nasty reaction lump, so I would love to do it another way if that is better! Thanks!!
Why does Lidi always lose one of her doelings ?
❤🐻❄️ 4:04
Good evening Crystal can you tell us what senior girls your getting rid of i been looking can’t find anything
You'll know soon.
I know what you should do with Princess May this year. When she is not in heat, introduce her to Aragon , and explain to her that he is worthy of her. He has more grand championship wins, more best in show wins and she should allow him to breed with her. 😅😅😅
😊🥰❤
Why you are not keeping any of Vaders doe?/
We really want to see.. please consider
Leia or Cassie doeling
How often do you give the goats that ? Just twice? After the booster just curious and I'm sure you have explained it many times im just getting old and forget stuff.... nay not that old just forgetful. They are all beautiful and handsome
Twice the first shot and once annually after that.
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats 👍🏻 thanks for answering back I know you've been busy with all of those goat babies 🤗 I glad you pick those does have a good night
Go have an iced tea 😂
You kinda shocked me when you didn't choose Cassie's doeling. Blue-eye, polled, and moon-spotted I thought she was a shoe-in. lol Not that the ones you chose aren't also beautiful. You got a very flashy set of babies :)

@@BlueCactusDairyGoats Agreed. She is gorgeous though!
❤❤❤😊😊😊
What does the CH, LG, LL, etc mean in the names?
CH=Champ LG= Legend LL=Lucky
It's a way to add buck name (abbreviation) to the name.
Makes breeding choices easier down the line. Especially for the people who have bought goats from Blue Cactus or from their bloodlines. 😊
That makes sense. I don’t know how I didn’t catch that. 🤦♂️ Thank you all.
Wait so if the drawing u still pay for the kids ?
The drawing is to determine who what’s first pick so you would still pay for the goat.
What is the difference is 3 and 4 star milkers?
It is a generational thing. The first time one of the line meet the milk star requirements, they are a 1*. If one of their daughters meets the requirements she is a 2*. The higher the number of stars is the number of mother to daughters who have earned their stars.
😊 A star B buck is born with his title from his mother having a milk star and his dad's mother has a milk star.🎉
What does the *B mean on the sires’ named?
It means he comes from good milk lines. The dam has earned her milk star and the site's dam has earned her milk star.
😇😇😇💜
ADELE, CALLIOPE ,MYSTIQUE ,PUT ME IN COACH ,TWO FOR THE MONEY, WINDY DAYS , DON'T LOOK AWAY
I’m shocked that you can’t show vaccinations. What could possibly be wrong about teaching this on animals or for teaching medical personnel with humans?
I'm sure they have their reasons but it does happen.
Hi
First one 😂
She was one of my favorites from birth. I love the name Mystique for her, from X Men .😊
Why you tube you do this to some people need to know and how take care of animals
