Just "Kidding" Around

The first of this spring’s kids finally arrived last week! Shelli gave birth to triplets – Beatrice, Baxter, and Bartholomew…can you tell that we have a “B” theme this year? Despite the first kid coming out in the wrong position, the birth went well and the kids are growing like weeds. Unlike some other baby animals (I'm thinking puppies), goat kids are incredibly cute the instant they are born. They were all wagging their tails and investigating their surroundings in a matter of minutes. Here are some photos!

  1. Love all the pictures! Your babies are adorable, and the contrast on some of your sheep before and after shearing is neat...Considered sheep, but hubby asked that I stick to the goats for now....Especially after my "just 2 goats honey" turned into 7 in just a few months!! lol Hoping to add a Cou Blanc or Sundgau doe next year if I can find one with good lines and disease free :-)

    Anywho...enjoyed the pictures!
