Goat-O-Rama Kids of 2024!
#1
Introducing the first two models off the 2024 Goat-O-Rama assembly line! These are Snowball/Pest crosses and they couldn't be lovelier! They're so new they haven't got names yet, but I'm sure we'll be thinking of some shortly! Snowball showed us first thing this morning that she was ready to have kids any time and she didn't want me to leave the pen. This is a first for her, as she usually likes to kid sometime around 2:00 in the morning, but I was pleased we could be there to assist. It turns out maybe she knew we needed to be there as she seemed to have a bit of trouble pushing these kids out even though they were presented correctly. I'm sure she'd have got them out eventually without help, but it was nice to be able to move things along a bit when progress stalled.

First to hit the ground at around 11:00 a.m. was a beautiful 8 lb. two-tone chamoisee baby girl. She looks a lot like her older sister, Molly! The next was a lovely 9 lb. white buckling with gray/blue roan spots. He's practically Pongo's double! We helped Snowball dry them off and get them into the shed and out of the wind, which was beginning to howl. The kids were up and nursing in almost no time at all.

Phil thinks this little guy looks like a "Gandalf." I'm inclined to agree. Let's see how we feel about it over the next couple days!

We have no idea what this little girl's name will be, but I'm sure she'll discover her name before long.
