Hi friends!  Today we’re talking about the buck effect, what it is, why it happens, and why we didn’t see it in our meat goat herd this year.  I’m walking you through my thought process evaluating why it didn’t happen, how it has affected our kidding season, and what that means for our goat herd.  Let’s get to it!

All the Best!
