We've had a request for some photo's of our wethers from a top view.  It may take a while for me to capture all of them, so please bear with me on this project, and check back another time for a photo of the wether of your choice.  You may also call me for a request to post more of a particular goat.

4-H WETHERS #79, #81, and #83

This set of wethers were born to Does of our own breeding.  The does were all sired by NSA S MASTER JOSE, he may be viewed in a January post under HERD SIRES.  JTTF LADY BUG is a full sister from a different kidding to our Jitterbug and Honey Bee. She is the daughter of MHR KATE.  JTTF EVIE MAE is the daughter of MHR ALLISON.  Both Kate and Allison are granddaughters of TARZAN T66  and are very large does, having very nice kids.  DUTCHESS is a percentage doe.  Her mother FAWN, came from a commercial herd.  While both are Boer goats in all appearance, Fawn is not registered and therefore we have no proof of her linage.  Once again, all of our wethers were sired by AABG NORTH BOUND, who may be viewed in a January post under HERD SIRES.  Photo's were taken on March 9, 2013-- just under 2 weeks old.

4-H WETHERS #73, 75, & 77

The wethers on this page were born to Dams that are twins and therefore share the same genetics.  A reminder that our wethers all have the same Sire.  AABG NORTH BOUND may be viewed in a January post under HERD SIRES.

JTTF JITTERBUG and JTTF HONEY BEE  are of our own breeding, born here on The Terry Farm.  They were sired by NSA S MASTER JOSE (may also be viewed in a January post under HERD SIRES).  Their Dam is MHR KATE.  Kate is a very large doe that has given us some of our nicest goat kids and grand-kids.

On their Dam's side they carry the gene of the great TARZAN T66.

4-H WETHERS #67, #69, & #71

This page will show you the three buckling's born in a set of quadruplets.  We decided to help Mom out and took the two smallest (one being a doe) away to bottle feed.  We are milking another doe that lost her baby in a still birth, to supplement the milk re-placer that we are using. I will describe them separately, then post their numbers under each photo.  Since they all have the same Dam, I will describe her first.  A reminder; all of our wethers have AABG NORTH BOUND as their Sire, he may be viewed in a January post under HERD SIRES.

KID PREVIEW born in Feb. '13

We have one more doe to kid at this posting, and are gearing up to start processing the kids that were born during the first half of February.  Here are a few pictures we'd like to share.  As we tag and tattoo ears, vaccinate, castrate, and dis-bud; we will add photo's to our 4-H wether page, and include a little info. with each photo. We had a couple of firsts this winter, our first set of quads. and our first 99.9 % all brown/red doe.  She has just a small white spot on her right side/belly and one white foot.
