New goat kids..... what a surprise!!!

Dear Ladies,
Just on Sunday,one of our goats kidded! She had twins.
But this morning, we got an even better surprise!! Our other goat, the one that had triplets last year, had triplets again this morning!! How exciting.
What a way to start the day..... I didn't watch it. Only Sam, Rebekah, Dani, Amanda, Emily and Mom watched the birth. Leah saw parts of it too. I guess I'd better get used to watching birth. I just can't see it!! I guess it's all part of farm life. Birth can be messy, but it brings something wonderful....into the world.
Hopefully one of the other girls will post some pictures later.
So far we have 3 girls and 2 boys. The one that had triplets last year had 2 boys and a girl. But this year, she had 2 girls and a boy!! How funny!
How wonderful birth is!!!

  1. Dear Hannah,
    Thank you so much for posting!
    Oh neat! I just love little goat kids! :) What kind are they? Right now my brother has one 16 1/2 month old doe and I have a 3 1/2 month old doeling. They are both Nubians. We are hoping to get a few more at the end of this month, also.
    Write more soon. Thanks again! :) Please tell everyone hi for me! :)
    Love & Blessings,
