The Goats: Part Three


Female kid

Good news!  Stacy, one of my favorite goats, had twins yesterday!  A little boy and girl. 
 

Male kid
Dad was out checking them and saw that Stacy had the female at her side was taking care of her, but she kept looking around a tree as though she wasn't content yet.  He looked and sure enough, the billy had fallen into the watering hole by that tree.  He got the kid out and thankfully the billy nursed and acted like he was going to be alright.
 
Stacy and her twins
Sad news.  I lost Rapunzel--the first black goat of this year.  She died during a cold spell a couple of weeks ago.  I believe we can all agree that death is the worst part of owning animals, correct?
So, let's hope that these kids, and the other four, will live out their long lives.  : )
