Smile A few pictures...

Tried to get some good pictures of the girls tonight, but gave up and settled for pictures that weren't blurry

Sabrina is settling in well, she's not limping anymore and she's not tolerating bullying anymore.....in fact if anything she's the bully now...but she only head butts the others if they mess with her food. Was a bit worried at 1st because Keys was constantly going after her, but the girls seem to have worked out a pecking order and are fine as long I feed Sabrina away from the other girls..... if she eats close to them, she runs them away from their food...Anywho here's the few pics I managed to get that aren't just blurs

Sabrina reaching for a treat:

Sabrina watching the other girls get their treats (notice the empty container on the ground? That had her treats in it...she inhaled them and then tried to get the other girl's treats) :

Sabrina, very upset.....she doesn't like being locked up in the barn at night so she jumps on the door to watch us leave and she just cries...poor baby:

Sabrina is just a beautiful goat! You'll have to make a special chocolate caramel swirl ice cream out of her milk and name it after her. Your others are gorgeous too. Now I want an Alpine or two.

Beautiful girls! So glad they have all finally figured out their places! So why does Sabrina have to get locked up by herself?

Thanks all

Katie- Sabrina is separated only at feeding time. The door on my barn is solid about 3/4 of the way up and the top is cattle panel on a square tubing frame......the mini girls are too short to look out, but Sabrina can stand on her hind legs and look out. We have a bad problem with bobcats, wild hogs & coyotes so I have no choice but to put the girls in the barn at night. Sabrina is not used to being locked up at night so she cries when she gets locked up and will continue until we're out of sight.

Best Wishes,
Crystal
