Ticco, Solomon & Domino Goaties!

September 2023
Ticco reminds me SO much of our first Angora goatie Odie. He was so sweet and happy AND they look a lot alike don’t they? First photo is Ticco and second is Odie. It really is uncanny. I didn’t realize it until I was sorting out some photo files! Ticco will be getting his fall haircut soon- he’s always glad to have that done and I am glad to have the fiber!


June 2022

Ticco just welcomed two new friends to the flock! The little black fellow is Solomon and the white is Domino. They are both Angora Goats. A friend asked us to adopt them after her shoulder was injured. Of course we said yes!!! They are getting to know the way of things here and bunking with the horses. Oh, and the llama (Bash) who THINKS he is a horse! Goats can play a little rougher than sheep do so we usually don’t have them with our sheep. We’ll see how things go. They are good boys and we share an apple every afternoon under their favorite Maple tree.


Ticco is such a goofball! You just never know where he will show up. He was up in his favorite Maple tree again and I happened to have my camera. Tee hee hee!

He found time to help us with some tree work too! Such a helpful little fellow right?

Ticco had his hair cut a few weeks ago! I am always amazed how quickly his curls grow back. AND I am always jealous of his curls! He is having a good summer so far and lives with Maxwell and the suri alpacas. He is a sweet sweet goatie!


January 2021

Ticco has his curls back already! He and his suri alpacas are not so sure they like the snow. His buddy Maxwell keeps them moving though. He loves to play!


Nov. 2020: This summer Ticco found a loose spindle in the front porch railing. He loves to be on our big sheep stand for shearing. Was he waiting for me to get to work? Such a silly goatie!


This look tells me he’s feeling sly? Shenanigans may be afooot? Bedlamb in the barnyard??


April 2020

Quite a year so far with all the changes in our world in general! Things here are pretty routine- started our shearing with this adorable little Ticco goatie! He is SO good and patient!

(Read all about his shearing day here…)


Fall 2019

This is Ticco, our Angora goatie- and he is absolutely adorable! His owner moved West and was unable to take him along. She didn’t have to twist my arm to take this cutie. He was a bottle bay and is quite the character. He loves to be loose in the yard with us. Scampers around with his little family- Sweets, Millie and Raven.
