Pupdate day!
**We have both males (black & blue) and one female (unknown color until other picks are made) still without reservation. Contact us for info. Go home date is 6/7/26.**
They've reached the age where we can convince some of them to go on a daily property walk. Yesterday it was Black and Bright Pink (first photo) who made it all the way around our wooded loop, further from the barn than any of them had ever been. Those who are less people focused and/or more of a close guard type will be more reluctant to leave the barn and herd. This helps us identify some traits and place puppies in the homes best suited to their personalities.
They're also starting to spend more time with the mature does, and some are beginning to truly take an interest in them. Light Pink is pictured checking in on one of the yearlings- just a sweet and gentle appraise and sniff.
They're also becoming very mischievous and playful. Nothing is safe. We're beginning to find their "treasure collections" in places around the barn (odd bits of trash, sticks, old bones, etc) and love a good wrestle time in the freshly removed deep litter from the barn or the mud puddle from emptying a stock tank.
Creamy is very people timid and will only approach you, not the other way around. Light pink is bold on approach but very sensitive to reprimands and will do best in a positive reinforcement training environment. Red is fearless and friendly and nothing seems to startle her, at this point. The two purples are becoming very social, but dark purple looks to be more stock oriented and light purple seems to be more inquisitive. We're still leaning towards retaining bright pink, or dark purple.
Black is a social butterfly and well rounded- he likes to explore but also gets into very little mischief. Blue is showing a preference for the ducks over the goats, which is a first for our litters.
