The Answer is ... To Be!

I posted yesterday how one of our newer goats appeared to be near birth. She was.

Introducing Jenny. She was born last night around 8:30pm. So far doe and kid are doing very well.

It was chilly, raining, and mama did NOT want to birth in the small birthing house we had. But, she stood up, nursed a little, and even tried her best to come over to us on her own.

To Be or Not to Be ...

Our newest goats came to our little farm pregnant. We were told they were just about 3 1/2 months along. I looked at them that day and thought that might not be right. But I figured time would tell.

Well, I am pretty sure time is telling. Our new 2 year old goat, Judah, is showing signs of labor. She is so restless, baying like mad, has bagged up (means her milk bag has filled and it's grown in size tremendously), and she is having discharge.

We might see our new little kids tonight, maybe in the next day or so. I will keep you updated.
