white kids, wattles, and elf-ears! CUTE

Its been EXTREMELY busy here on the farm the last week but especially the last few days. Two goats kidded, three sheep lambed, and a foal was born! However, on top of that both my toddler & infant have caught a bad cold ....

Anyway I have to share the cuteness. These kids are all half Saanen:

Bear (named by my 3 yr old) buckling out of our purebred Lamancha

Daphne - doeling out of our Lamancha/Nubian cross

Duster - Daphne's twin buckling

I was thinking the same thing, we like lambs & foals too!


The babies are darling & did I read that right, Daphne had a little lamancha eared baby & a long eared baby?

Hope your little one's feel better soon too!

Daphne is the doeling. The mama is Dawn but yes she had babies with two different ear types. Her last set of twins she did the same thing. We saw them when we bought her.

thank you all for the well-wishes for my girls!!
