In my wildest dreams, I never believed that I would love goats!! But let me tell you...........we bought our little herd last year & goats are some of the sweetest & funnest animals ever. Not to mention they have the cutest babies!!!
I shared in my previous post about how busy our February was. Let's add baby goats being born to that list!!! Remember the icestorm?? Well, don't you just know that on that FRIGID winter night prior to the storm was when Jojo had her babies. WOW!!! She had 2 bucks & 1 doe. There really isn't anything cuter than baby goats. They are precious & we are already in love with them. Because of the extreme cold temps they were born in & the fact that 2 of them wandered away from their mom, we've had to take extra care & caution with them. The third one is the biggest one & he stayed close by momma. So, we were able to leave him out with her while his brother & sister got a little TLC & warmth inside.
The next day we were able to return them to the barn & reunite them with their momma & brother.
That afternoon while we were checking on them we realized that Addie was in labor too!! So, it was time for more baby goats!! She had a buck & a doe!! So in the course of two days we gained 5 new precious baby goats.
This is almost too much preciousness for one picture!!!
My girls are in love & they are excellent helpers!
Now we just patiently wait for our three youngest does to have their babies!!! That should happen around the first of May!! Babies, babies, babies!!!
