We didn't think we would have baby goats this spring....We didn't have a billy goat(you know the male counterpart to the whole birds and the bees thing)! Apparently, a baby boy has no problem getting the whole herd pregnant!Are you sicked out? I am. He was still nursing! Come on!
I just have to chock this up to you live and learn!
So last night Noah and Sam headed out to feed the goats and came in with a cry of...
"We have babies...."
Try explaining that one!
It was so cold though, and they were just freezing and getting trampled by the other big goats. Good thing we found them when we did, especially since we weren't looking for them.
We had to put them in our coats to warm them up.
"Mango", the mama.
Caleb keeping the little girl warm....I think we will name her "Rosy" jury is still out though.
Me keeping the little boy warm. Great! another boy!
We did casterate all them except the one that we were going to sell to a lady.
When it was time to sell him, she informed us she had gotten one from someone else....Thanks for that!
Sorry little man, but you will be de-throned! If you know what I mean.
Now looking at the other goats, We think they are pregnant as well....guess I will get to milk this year anywhoo!

Emma told me you had to put coats on the goats to keep them warm....... see what she means. They are darling of course but can't compare to the cute little people kids holding the goat kids.
Oh no! How funny is that . . . I do remember reading your post about how much you wanted cheese and milk and butter though.... maybe this is a good thing:) Congrats on your new little Arkoudi on the way!
Something is wrong with my snarky self. I would leave you a comment that tells you how the birds and bees work but I am all out of them. UGH! I tell ya, this is one crazy funk that I am in. I really did just tell Jeron yesterday, I don't have any wit left:(
Anywho, I actually read this post a while ago but I just thought it was cute. I just was loving you guys keeping the goats in your coats.
