Me, holding little girl goat, I have started calling her Sunday, original I know, being how she was born on Sunday.
We have been waiting for weeks for this day. Our goats are all still pregnant, except for Tulip, one of our first time momma goats. She gave birth this morning about 10 am to twin kids, a little boy and a little girl. The boy is fulll of energy and very friendly (he and Case are already buddies) and then the girl is more docile and timid. Names are still in the air as we will be selling the babies.
Tulip wasn't wanting to let the babies suck this morning, so I had to hold her head under my arm and rub her teats so that she would get used to having something sucking on her bag. Finally, this afternoon she let the babies suck without any hastle and started acting like a good mama.
We really enjoy having baby goats around!
