Babies! Twins! Girls!

Friday afternoon I was getting ready to start on pizza dough and then head out for afternoon chores. I was standing at the sink when Dan stuck his head in the back door and said urgently, “Come now!” I knew what that meant because Miracle had gone off by herself in the barn earlier in the afternoon. We’d both been keeping an eye on her. “Already part way out,” he said as we ran to the barn. By the time we got there, the first baby had just been born. About 20 minutes later, we had a second baby goat, both little does. Here they are at about an hour old.

First born

Second

Miracle had been so big, we were actually surprised there were only two. But she’s always tended to be fat, so the extra girth is pretty normal for her. Fortunately, it was a beautiful day. February hasn’t been as mild as January was, and I admit that’s a concern when baby goats are due. I worry about them getting hypothermia when they are brand new.

Here they are the next day, not quite 24 hours old yet. Even in their sweaters, you can see that after they dried off they weren’t as dark as they first looked. In fact, they both look just like their mom!

The biggest difference between them is that the first on has waddles like their daddy. The second born has more white on her crown and face.

I have at least one other doe due to kid next month (Nova). And maybe another one in a couple of weeks. That one (River) I’m less sure about because she wasn’t very cooperative when she had her date with Magnus. They were both first timers and one assumes they’ll figure it out, but . . . ???? She doesn’t look very big, but she seems to be getting a little bit of an udder, so that’s hopeful. There may be one hiding in there, after all. We’ll see!
