New babies

Becky brought over the newest members to her family. New twin baby goats. Goats are such social animals that they will follow her anywhere and she doesn't have to worry about herding them.

As usual I have the pictures out of order but will try to comment on the ones that need a comment.

The babies are only 3 weeks old but they are still tiny.


Suck, suck suck, they will try to suck on anything. One of the babies simply didn't know what to head for and still is a little "dim" on the whole eating thing. Becky milked the mama and the dim baby seemed to do a little better drinking out of a pan. I told Becky that if that baby was in a whole herd of goats and didn't have the attention she gives it, it would have simply starved to death.




In the window of the door you can see my cat, "Kat" taking a great interest in what is going on. You can also compare the size of the baby goat with the cat.


Becky "loving" her baby.


I suspect that the goat is trying to eat Becky's shoe


This is the picture I wanted to show you first. It is of Becky bringing the goats for a visit.


And this is of the whole "herd" heading home.
