I LOVE Baby. Her marking are so neat. She stuck out to me in the very first picture even though she was way in the back.

Laura, if I just let the goats out, they stay in the fields within sight of the house for the most part. But if I'm around they feel safe and they will follow me around through the woods.

Yea, Baby stands out in a crowd I remember when she was born. I thought she was brown. Then as she dried, whoa! She has yet to give me a spotted doeling

Beautiful pictures & all the goats are so cute! Baby looks like she is going to bust right now! Please be sure & put pictures up of her kids this spring please?

Mine also love to go for walks & would love the weather you have there now, not much here but dead green, leaves & snow! They still wander about & nibble on dried tall weeds though every now & then.

Your Baby reminds me of my Pessa. Pessa always has a big round barrel. She's not due till mid March.

If you have the right goats, just walk through the field... Presently, you have a whole bunch of shadows and leg attachments. Better than glue!

Oh I feel for Baby, this time last year I was waddling and big as a house too.

All lovely goats. I do love Savannah's "bobby socks" on the front, so cute!

Can't really see any fish tails, but if I had to guess I would say the black one with white patches on the belly in the lower left corner of the second picture. Rear end looks kinda bleached out red and your other blacks don't look sunbleached.

Yep! Glori is my canary . She isn't as deficient as she has been in the past, but not quite where she should be.

Cute picture Petaddict
