Since she can't take care of 5 by herself and I work fulltime, we made the decision to pull 3 babies and sent them home with the buck owners to be bottle babies. The just lost a beloved pet goat who was named Sparky, so all three of their babies now have "S" names in honor of both him and Snickers. Their three are now Sarah, Sabrina, and Samuel. I love that it honors both their dear goat and my lovely girl

Snickers' doeling from last year that I kept is named Skittles

The two babies she still has do not have names yet, so keep them coming!

Are your babies girls or boys? Who got to keep the colored one?

She had three doelings and two bucklings. Of course, the really pretty colorful one is a buckling, LOL. I can't keep a buck and the buck owners' were planning on buying a buckling this year, so it really worked out. They took him and now I don't have to put such a pretty guy into the freezer.

The two we still have are the cream colored doeling and the orange and white (sort of boer colored) buckling. I think he will go to freezer camp and she will be sold as a home milker. I haven't totally decided yet.
