Mine all do it, does, bucks and wethers.

I think quads, 2 doelings, 2 bucklings - March 29th

I thought cow, too, when I saw the middle picture. She is gorgeous. I just love black and white spotty goats!

Have I missed pictures, Kim?!?!?

In case some of you don't know, my Cookie and Kim's Elsie are full sisters born two years apart. I wanted to buy Elsie from Kim, but she was selfish and wouldn't let me...hee hee hee! She did, however, let me know that Celtic Knot (who I was buying my Lamanchas from) had Elsie's sister for sale. So, I bought her too!

All pink thoughts being sent your way. Looks like twins to me.

I thought she was talking to the girls and telling them to hurry up and make an appearance, as soon as you need to do something or go somewhere.

April 4th... lol

Cookie has been doing lots of napping, grunting, and panting. It's been close to 80 degrees here for a few days, so I'm sure that doesn't help her one bit!

Mudge, on the other hand, is handling this all with grace and dignity.

All my does do that periodically. I think its when they smell something weird. We noticed last summer they would do it if DD touched their head in a certain place, or wiped her finger over their mouth.

I know, she has the perfect barn for goats! I remember when you were fixing the barn & seeing pictures of it then & I wished I had your barn!

Gesh.......you call yourselves "goat people".

Now you've done it. Because you said that, she will have six kids in three weeks.
