Pics of our new additions

Here are Zora's new girls.
First girl. We think her name will be Alice. It was warm but breezy out, so DH and I helped with the drying off.

Here's our 2nd girl, Willa.

And here they are voicing their displeasure at being away from mom for a minute.

They are both doing well, wearing their little sweatshirts, and cuddled in with mom for the night.

Sorry about that. I was exhausted after a long, eventful day, and just hit the "New Thread" button instead of opening the first one. Any trip to the grocery store is too long for me, but that one would have been a doozy!

Aw, thank you. I didn't feel especially pretty yesterday, and the red eyes in the pic really aren't my natural color. I think the baby goaties make me look a little nicer, though. They're always a nice accessory.

Oh Boy!. Could they be more different in coloring? Looks like you got the wide variety. The only thing they carry in common is the star on their HAids! Just to make it harder for you to choose - if you have to.

Good luck! What breed(s) do you have there?

They are like night and day, aren't they? Alice (the black one) looks a lot like her dam, and Willa (the tan one) is colored like their sire. Since they're both doelings, they will both probably stay here. We're excited to add a few more girls here to add to the milk supply. All of our goats are Nigerian Dwarfs, so we can stagger breedings to get a year-round supply.

I love the color contrast! Yeah it is like one is dark as night with the north star on her head, and the other is bright as day! You forgot to warn caliann to wear her helmet, think we better check her for a concussion?

They're so cute! Alice doesn't look very happy to be here! I'm sure once she discovers she can bounce around, she'll be over it.

I wore my helmet, the noise was just me hitting that coffee table there.

The cuteness is definitely overload!
