Aww!! Congratulations!! Which one is the lighter colored one? They're both cute!

Nester, the boy.

 

[BlessedWithGoats]

Aww!

 

[lkmartin1230]

Yeah. I'm just hoping they will be okay over night. Sassy seemed really spaced out. And it took her longer to find her milk than her brother.

The devastation of loss is comforted by life anew.

Sorry about the loss of your doe and her kids. Then like a ray of hope, along comes two new additions to the family.

Does she feel warm?

Awwww.... SO happy for you! What a nice turn after what happened! They are adorable!

Yes she feels warm, she just stands there. She got colostrum and so did her brother, but she would just standing there staring off into space almost.

Does she feel warm?

We actually have 4 new babies because the day before she died another doe had twins. Babies make everything better for some reason. It's either unconditional love, or fluffiness.....I can't tell, but it's not just baby goats it's all goats IMHO.

Missy will not let Zora's babies play with hers. Missy is overprotective and Zora is a laid back mother. That's what worries me. First Sassy got stuck in the fence, then Missy scared her and got her cornered and she literally JUMPED into the baby swimming pool we use for our water.....I didn't like the idea of letting Missy back in, but she needed to sleep in the barn....maybe I won't go out to dead babies in the morning. Seems like my goats are ALWAYS trying to find a way to kill themselves, hurt themselves or hurt others. hoping everything goes well.
