Goat Kidding 2009- Part 1

FINALLY!

Baby goats around this place have finally decided to honor us with their presence.  Since this first batch was six days late, we were all in great anticipation.

Maggie, our leader of the pack, had kids on Thursday, April 16th, at about 8:10 p.m.  First came a beautiful little girl which we decided to call Jenny, because when she was born she looked exactly like a donkey.  Gray face, white muzzle, white around the eyes.  She was SOOO cute.  

Second came a little boy which we called Jack, just because a girl donkey is called a Jenny and a boy one is a Jack- so there we were.  Jack has the cutest pick nose- which is rare in goats.  They are hilarious.  They run around, butting heads and jumping up in the air, doing little twirly things.  And both of them are very friendly.

Well- so far so good.

Stay tuned for round two.
