Awww, congrats on the babies and your "graduation" Loved the pic of the little one Gosh, I'm going broody here, I think I need goats too.

My friend got some good pics last night, waiting for her to send them to me.

Lilly's doeling... Is amazingly gorgeous. I thought about keeping her. But you can't milk colors, and her mom isn't the best milker. So I am going to find her the best darn pet home I can, or someone who doesn't want a ton of milk.

Lilly's babies!

I got my cheese and yogurt cultures in the mail today!! Patty's kids will be 2 weeks on Monday, so I'm going to separate at night and milk in the morning. They're big and growing great! The buckling nibbles on hay! Lilly's are growing fine but not as sturdy so I'll leave her alone for a bit longer.

Peppermint and bucklings are going tomorrow. She's been smashing the cattle panels between her stall and the other girls, and she's bleeding. She's such a psycho idiot. Sheesh! Lol

Thanks, it's awesome because it's warm enough that the driveway is a mud pit under the snow. So gross. This lady is a good old New Englander, she isn't afraid of a little mud or snow!

Only got one non-blurry picture! This is a doeling.

OK let me rephrase that. They are diving in the food dish and pigging out on hay and grain! 4 weeks old now! I love dam raising. They act like goats. Moms teach best!

Moms teach best!

That's the truth! Cocoa's little guy is already learning to eat and he's just 3.5 weeks.

One of each. So, looks like the lady was wrong and Clifford didn't breed her. Yay!

So grand total of 5 does, 6 bucks. And kidding is over!
