Adults for Sale We get pretty attached to our goats, so it's not often that we put up an adult for sale. These animals listed below have proven themselves to be wonderful goats, with great dispositions and possibilities, but we can only keep so many, so these goats are ready to help someone else's herd.
Picture coming	Hames & Axle Macrame Dam: Hames & Axle Gordian Knot Sire: Hames & Axle Yankee Rebel +S $350 dry Mac is a great little goat. She freshened for the first time last year with a single buck, so there wasn't much to push her production. We gave another year to mature. She has a beautiful udder, with milkable teats, but like Gordia she didn't produce as we'd like. Since she is such a friendly goat we feel she doesn't get enough attention in our large herd, so we'd like to see her help another family who wants to have a great start on a backyard milking goat herd.
Picture coming		Health Record: TB/Bruc Free by testing 1997-2003, MA is a TB/Bruc free state. TB/Bruc Free Test 2010 CAE: Always tested negative. Whole herd test 1997-2005. Random sampling 2006 & 07. 2010 testing - Whole Doe Herd (all negative) Random in Buck Herd ( all negative) Johnnes and CL: We do not test, but have had no sign of either disease at any time. CL tests done on a few in 2009 and 2010 all yielded negative results. We are very careful with our biosecurity, at home and away.

Yearling shot. She's 3 now.	Hames & Axle Mink Dam: Hames & Axle Miracle Elation *D Sire: Hames & Axle Murphy's Law $300 dry Mink is a beautiful dark mahogany chamoisee with silver frosting on her nose and ears. She comes from great milking lines, and has a very nice udder, but like Macrame, only freshened with a single buck kid so there wasn't as much milk as we'd like. I believe she carries a lot of milk, but needs to have the kids to require it. She's a bit shy, but once she's caught or on the milking stand, she's great. She never put her hoof in the buck, even as a first freshener! That's a great goat.
	Hames & Axle YR Shane Dam: Hame & Axle's Sactus Echo Sire: Hames & Axle Yankee Rebel +S $400 ( bred to Timpact) Shane is a very special goat for us. She was meant to stay here forever, but we have to make her happy, and that means a smaller herd. Shane is very personable, loves attention, but is a bit meek to push through the "elder statesgoats" who don't care for her. She won a Jr. Gr. Champion in her only show, but her udder attachment is not good enough to do much in the adult ring. However, she has excellent spring of rib, legs, skin and other traits, and would be a great addition to a small herd working on those traits. I'll miss her here, but she deserves to feel as special as she is.!
	Hames & Axle's Minuet $300 for sale in milk Sire: Hames & Axle's UR Feelin' Lucky +S Dam: Hames & Axle Chamisoul *D Minuets first kid didn't survive so we didn't milk her. This year she looks like she's got a set of babies in there, but she would do much better in a smaller herd. She is a bit shy, but judging by her behavior as a yearling, she is a doll up close and personal.
	Hames & Axle Arpeggia (Sale Pending) Dam: Hames & Axle Rhapsody Sire: Hames & Axle Yankee Rebel +S $300 in milk after kids are weaned This little girl comes from a long line of milk. She is due in early February and will be available, in milk, 8 weeks after she freshens. Her mother is a great milker, and she is a grand daughter of ARMCH Goodwood Tom Thumb 'E' ++*S. She is not a show doe, but will do well in a milking family.





	Wethers - We also have three wethers available. They can go as a bachelor herd for $200, if anyone is interested. They do have scurs, but will make great pets and brush clearers. $75/per goat if taken individually.
