Congratulations on 1st place! That’s amazing! After seeing all the hard work you’ve put into this business, there is no doubt how much you deserve this recognition! You go girl!
Crystal congrats on the soap 1st place I'm so proud of you. Legend is a character and I love him so much. Can't wait for Wildee and Dreamer babies for next season. Blessings from Michigan ❤
Congratulations on a winning the soap award!!! Your soaps are not only beautiful and smell good but my skin feels amazing after I use it! You put your heart into everything you do! ❤
Loved seeing Legend and the girls having a great day out. Bucky blubbers always give me the giggles. Congratulations Crystal on the 1st place ribbon on your soap! 🐐🧼💚
Hello Chrystal ❤love your video. Congratulations 🎉on your reward for your soap. God bless you and your family and home 🏡. God bless yall your fur babies so precious and adorable. Stay cool 😎 your friend Robin from Virginia
Congratulations u deserve it. I am new messaging but I have been watching u for yrs n I have watched every video u have up. I LOVE Tippy she is my favorite I hope u keep her. ❤❤ I absolutely love watching u n ur family. 🤗🤗❤️❤️
I can see how proud you are of your soap winning. For years, us longtime followers encouraged your soap making venture and we are thrilled you’ve taken it up the next level. Well deserved. I have spent hundreds on your soap and it’s divine!! Congratulations!!
Congrats on your win, you deserve it so much, your soap is the best one . ( Got one as a gift from co worker..) As much as we have to wash our hands, it keeps them moisturized ..and lmfao, they work great to hand wash clothes..
Congratulations on the soap!!!! We ended up not being able to go to convention either! Bummer! But so wanna go next year and hope to see you there! On the goats: ha! You sound EXACTLY like Caden and myself! We are going to have to make hard cuts this year from the older girls to retain and it's just a double edged sword because we can't keep em all and we are really relying on our eyes and genetics we have put together and hoping we ARE improving (which we have been...just wanna keep improving always!). We just brought a new buck in this year I feel could bring that strength into our heavy dairy does. So here's to hoping all our dreams come true, right? Hugs from TN!
I really like Huck. He’s to cute. Just like his dad lucky (the luck buck). I hope you can find a way to keep him. Congratulations on the winning first place on your soap.
Congratulations on first place. You work/have worked so hard on your soaps. I can say that the ones I have tried so far are AMAZING. Again Awesome news for first place, you really deserved this honor . Love to see the ladies out browsing and Legend being the king of the ladies. 😂 He's a cutie. ❤❤
Congratulations on your soap! Boy it would be hard to pick and choose which ones to keep. Where’s Vader? Did he get new ladies? I LOVE the silver coloring!
Legend reminds me of a puffed up Silver Back Gorilla🤭 So Much Overflowing Handsome Pride On Parade ❤❤❤ Just got to love him(no matter how stinky he gets)❣️
😂 while you were talking about Wildee, legend was courting Wren; who was flagging like mad in the background! So cute. I love Wildee and her babies. You have a hard choice to make.
being practical from the heart, I see you selecting your ultimate herd and selling your babies easily. Well when I get excited about what I can do, then not only what I let go of, forgotten, but what was selected is loved even more
I’m not an expert by no means on this subject, but taking into account your goals for your “perfect” goat, these are the goats I would keep. I’m trying to aim for 7 Seniors, 2 Juniors, 1-2 Bucks, 3 to 4 2025 doelings, and 1 to 2 2025 bucklings. This would leave you with 12 to 13 does and 3 bucks. I will list it in 4 sections; Bucks, Seniors, Juniors, and 2025 kids: Seniors: 1. Abilene 2. Wildee 3. Daisy 4. Mayo 5. Mia 6. Pepper 7. Piper (since Daisy & Dreamer and Honey & Pepper are siblings, I chose the one of each pair I think fits your standards the most) Juniors: 1. Mobie 2. Marsha 3. Revel 4. Wren (depending on how these 4 develop and how the 2025 doelings look, I would keep Mobie for sure and choose 2 or 1 from the remaining three to keep) Bucks: 1. Huck or Hank 2. Legend 3. 2025 buck (I would consider keeping 2 2025 bucks and selling Legend if the bucklings look really good) 2025 kids: 1. Mayo doe 2. Mia doe 3. Wildee doe or buck 4. Daisy doe or buck 5. Abilene doe (I would keep 1 or 2 2025 bucklings and 3 to 5 doelings) PD: I am not including the retired goats. also please take into account that I love every single BDG goat but I tried doing this ignoring my extreme and probably slightly unhealthy attachments :,)
Wilddee is a favourite of mine I remember when you hinted at getting her as a doeling. I've been around for awhile so it's sad seeing some go but I understand it's for the good of you and your family also for the good of the heard.
That shot of you looking away with the boy's below would make a cool company photo. " Crystal watches over male goats while they have time to graze on the land. Right here at Blue Cactus Dairy Goats" If you are interested or knows someone who is thinking of please pass the link below and share our UA-cam videos. How does that sound???
Congratulations on your hard work. 1st place that's amazing. I've wanted to try your soaps for so long but financial difficulties keep me at bay. I will try to get some orders in but for now I have to be focused on get the bills paid. Again Congratulations and keep up the great work.
Legend is such a stud!! I love him so much!!! He’s turned into such a Hoss!!! He’s been my favorite since the day he was born!!!! NO you already are breaking my heart getting rid of my Bessie!!! Please don’t get rid of Legend!!!!!!!!!! 😢
Bonjour Crystal Bon courage pour le choix . Ce n’est pas facile de réduire un troupeau alors que tu les aimes toutes tellement. Je n’aimerais pas être à ta place . 1000 bisous de France à toute ta belle famille ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just thought of a song Derik could do Legend you asked him what he was doing and it made me laugh out loud and I thinking out loud that song by Randy Travis (Digging Up Bones 🦴)Legend (Thinking Up Trouble) he get into when mom not looking!!LOL❤❤❤❤❤
Legend is like - "I don't care about my ladies, I just want someone elses' ladies~" dont keep all the babies lol also im so sad that i missed out on the Ginger bar and the Beer bar, but ah well, there is always next year LOL
Put electric fences on the front of the other goat pens when you have them in pens for breeding time and turn it on when you let the bucks out with their does and it stops the bucks from trying to get into the other pens and it works
I feel like a scratching post will be a nice investment for you haha. Also, keeping animals and taking care of them comes with attachment problems. I completely understand how hard it might be for you.
I think Legend is my favorite buck. He looks like a mini MUSK OX! "Bluh bluh bluh bluh! PST!) Wildee is the prettiest doe IMO, and I love her. She is like a calico kitty. So, I love Legend and Wildee pairing. I hope you can keep both Legend and Huck if it doesn't interfere with the viability of your genetics. Also, this video really showcases how beautiful your property is for sure...how many acres is it? When is it for sale ?(hee hee!) Congrats on your award-winning SOAP! I'm ordering some now! I loved your ending music this video, with Legend Blubbing in the background!
Congratulations on gettin first place. Could you tell me which of your soaps are good for exama? Sorry for spelling. I have a grandson who gets it quite bad in the winter. Please and thank you. I love your videos.
Crystal l love all the goats but any Dawn line is a must stay. Dawn was a gorgeous goat and is irreplaceable. Close second is anything May . I love the chamoise and her solid structure I am hoping Moby inherited her mama’s traits. And finally Wildee line love her less deep but sleek conformation. I noticed that Wren has inherited that same body type. All these lines would match great with Aragon.
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats Omg really 😨? I understand now for your Patou ( big White dog ) . In France we have Patou dogs against Wolves Sorry for my english 😉😉😉😉😉
Crystal, you have difficult decisions to make. I love all the goats. I dont know if i could sell any of my favorites. But as you said, you need to start keeping younger stock. 😅 keeping animals for purpose is a difficult endeavor. You bond with them, but you know not all of them are staying.
OK, Sent tour pumpkin soap to my BFF andy niece. They love it. I got yelled at because I didn't get one for myself. Well I remedy that and received it on Thursday (10/24). I used it Friday and it was wonderful. Now if it can just lift my face and iron out all my wrinkles..... Well an old gal can always dream.... ❤❤❤❤
Congratulation Crystal I am so glad that you won first place that makes me happy but it makes me sad that I can’t order your soap because I don’t have no I don’t have no credit card to where I can order I have everything out by I’ll write a check as long as I can anyway I don’t know what to do there’s some of your soap that I love to hell but I haven’t ordered them because I don’t know how to do it I love you and your family your precious lady and special and I’m glad that you did by the track of land in Arkansas I love you have a good evening bye for now

Kudo's and congratulations to you for your hard work to bring us the best ingredients.
Would a Legend/ Cami pairing work? Love the all!! 🥰😁 Congrats on your award!!🎉
lol Legend cracks me up 🤣🤣
Also Dreamer and Abilene because of Dawn and Lucky ❤ them both.
Congratulations on the soap!!!! We ended up not being able to go to convention either! Bummer! But so wanna go next year and hope to see you there!
On the goats: ha! You sound EXACTLY like Caden and myself! We are going to have to make hard cuts this year from the older girls to retain and it's just a double edged sword because we can't keep em all and we are really relying on our eyes and genetics we have put together and hoping we ARE improving (which we have been...just wanna keep improving always!).

Congratulations on your soap! Boy it would be hard to pick and choose which ones to keep. Where’s Vader? Did he get new ladies? I LOVE the silver coloring!
@@Hope-Lenders thank you! we didn't use him this year and he will be for sale.
I think Camie and Cassie have adjusted to the fact that they are Retired but Maddie 7:56 her intentions are not clear 😂😅.
Legend reminds me of a puffed up Silver Back Gorilla🤭 So Much Overflowing Handsome Pride On Parade ❤❤❤ Just got to love him(no matter how stinky he gets)❣️
Dreamer and legend
Love crazy Legend the wooly mammoth!
😂 while you were talking about Wildee, legend was courting Wren; who was flagging like mad in the background! So cute. I love Wildee and her babies. You have a hard choice to make.
being practical from the heart, I see you selecting your ultimate herd and selling your babies easily. Well when I get excited about what I can do, then not only what I let go of, forgotten, but what was selected is loved even more

5. Mia
6. Pepper
7. Piper
(since Daisy & Dreamer and Honey & Pepper are siblings, I chose the one of each pair I think fits your standards the most)
Juniors:
1. Mobie
2. Marsha
3. Revel
4. Wren
(depending on how these 4 develop and how the 2025 doelings look, I would keep Mobie for sure and choose 2 or 1 from the remaining three to keep)
Bucks:
1. Huck or Hank

PD: I am not including the retired goats. also please take into account that I love every single BDG goat but I tried doing this ignoring my extreme and probably slightly unhealthy attachments :,)
That is great news. Most of all now you know how important it is to try different things with goat milk.
Wilddee is a favourite of mine I remember when you hinted at getting her as a doeling. I've been around for awhile so it's sad seeing some go but I understand it's for the good of you and your family also for the good of the heard.

Congratulations!! And Legend is truly Legendary! Emily, I have those exact same pants! 😊

Well done , congratulations!!
You deserve that award

Huck and Ray might make really good babies. So if you decide to keep one of her's. Not to mention Piper, oh she is sooo gorgeous. I am in love ❤
Huck and Ray are half siblings .same dad ( lucky)

I think your Willie might have six or seven kids this year, and I am usually pretty right on the money. Congratulations on your soapy awards.
I am a) late to the party, b) not done the video yet, and c) believe the little grey doeling has fallen in love with Legend.
❤❤
Crystal, your hard work and determination have paid off, send our love to LEDGEND 💕 Can you show me TIN? Love to you all 💞xxx

If i am not wrong Dreamer was never bred to Legend before. 3 times with Vader and 1 time with Aragon. This is the first year with Legend.😅
Yes .
❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
I like Legend. He is very bossy! Do any of the girls sass him back?

Oui je voulais savoir Crystal , y a t’il des prédateurs dans ta région ???? Des loups des coyotes ???
We have coyotes mainly but possibility of cougars, bobcats, and bears
