Violet is one of our favorite goats.  She is a gentle lady that was quite wild
upon arrival as a yearling and is one of our tamest does now.  Even though
her first kidding was as a five year old, she has kidded every year with
absolutely no problems and is a wonderful mother.  She kept a nice soft
handle on her fleece that continues even today at nine years old, although she
doesn't produce much mohair anymore.   
Violet Arrives  Oct. '02 as a yearling

Farm of Roy, Washington,
