Virginia State Fair - Youth Meat Goat Show

Some photos from the Youth Meat Goat show at the Virginia State Fair. It was fantastic to see so many youth & goats participating in the show. It was a fun experience for Danielle & she learned a lot over the weekend.

Danielle ended up coming home with two 1st place ribbons, two 6th place ribbons & a 10th place ribbon. She was thrilled for her 1st time competing at the state fair.

State Fair is almost here!!

Danielle is excited that the State Fair is almost here. Here's a few photos of her practicing with her goats.

State Fair is almost here!

State fair is only a couple weeks a way. Danielle spent the afternoon "deep cleaning" her goats since it's been a while since they've been bathed. Hopefully this will make the grooming next week before loading everyone a little easier. Below is "K.L." - Danielle will be showing her in the yearling breeding doe class.

This is Olga, our black-headed doe. She was not too happy to be getting a bath!

Ruthie didn't do too bad with her bath. Of course, she just went through all this in May when Danielle was getting her ready for the Chesapeake 4-H Livestock show.

Cinnamon definitely was the most vocal in expressing her complete displeasure with the whole "bath" idea. :) Danielle will be showing her in the market class at the state fair.

Bubba is looking great! Danielle started putting him in the round pen to work with him & now he even runs around the yard after her. He's definitely putting on the muscle.
