According to the promise I made my husband, this is our very last goat purchase. We got the baby Nubian doe that we will eventually breed with our ND buck. She's just weaned and, as you can tell by the picture, not at all happy with the road trip. She's also not happy with her new home or her new pen mate. (She is currently sharing with Tripod.) I plan to take off early today and start spending a lot of time with her. I want her to really bond with us. She wasn't a bottle baby and it doesn't seem like she's had one-on-one with people time. Although she is very sweet and last night she kept putting her face right up against mine and sort of sniffing. Any suggestions on helping her attach to us would be appreciated. I want her to be a friendly mama and milker when the time comes and I know I need to start laying the foundation now.
