Picture 1: Tabby's doeling behind Tabby (one of triplets)
Picture 2: Same doeling
Picture 3: Tabby's other doeling. I will probably keep this one, if I only keep one. In the background are Ivy (white) and Peekaboo (dark chocolate and white), two 2014 spring kids.
Picture 4: Same doeling...too cute.
Picture 5: She's a bit of trouble maker, since the fences don't contain them yet.
Picture 6: Tabby's same doeling with a boer kid climbing in a bucket. She's only a week older than that boer kid, so I hope she doesn't grow too big! The doe is Lulu, and she is nursing the boer kid. LOL. In the background to the left is all my feed and junk (haha), just out of sight is our alfalfa pellet feeder (doeling was climbing hay next to it in previous pic), to the right is the shop where I milk.
Picture 7: Ivy and Peekaboo again
Picture 8: Gizzy, due in 2 weeks. Background is Moose, due mid-March.
Picture 9: Bambi, also due in 2 weeks. Both are bred to a saanen buck. Should be some very milky kids! Peachy photobombing (she likes to do that ).
Picture 10: Bambi's lil udder coming in. I'm really excited to see these two fresh...they wouldn't breed as kids for some reason, so ff almost 2 year olds now! They are out of an Elite sire who has lots of EX appraising daughters as well.

Love your goats! Love your barn & pen layouts!

Thank you! They are in a "dry lot" we made for them for winter right now, which includes the barn. Last year, they tore up the pasture pretty bad, so we built this for them to hopefully keep it in better shape. There is an alleyway down to the pasture and the pasture itself is divided into 6 sections with the isle down the middle, which makes it easier to take them out to it. You can see part of the alley and the pasture in the last picture. They cannot have access to both the barn and pasture at the same time, unfortunately, so in summer we bring them up to milk and out to pasture after...unless it is bad weather, and then they just have to stay in the dry lot. They were tearing up the hill too much, because that's their favorite spot to lay and sunbathe...which wouldnt' be too much of a problem, except that they paw the dirt to make a "bed" and they were digging holes!

I have one pen inside the barn which is lined with 2 x 4 welded wire for kidding and I can use as a "baby jail". I bottle feed most, but not all of my kids, so the dam-raised ones get locked in there overnight for milking the dams. You can see part of the kid pen by Tabby's kid in the first picture.

Your goats look great & love the baby pictures! The last pictures crack me up, looks like here & the goats dreaming of fresh green stuff growing instead of everything all white!
