Chloes 2015 Kidding

When I went out to do morning chores I found 2 sweet surprises... Chloe kidded, it hadnt been long, the 2nd baby was still pretty wet and laying there and the placenta was hanging out of Chloe. Brian and I moved them from the goat house to my little barn with a heat lamp. I wanted Chloe to get to know her babies and figure things out as a new mom.  Chloe was 1 years old December 2014, I wasnt gonna breed her yet but my bucks had other plans... I believe by looking at these kids that my buck Silo is theyre Sire.  For those of you that follow me you know all these months have been a guessing game with Choles breeding and I was just guessing that she was due around March 28th. I stayed home today to make sure everything was goin good with Chloe and her kids.  I will be selling these kids, actually the doeling is already sold.  

 The buckling (black with tan, dark brown, white moonspots) weighs 4.3 lbs. and the doeling (black with white moonspots and tanish under belly) weighs 3.6 lbs. Smallest kids born in my herd so far.

My kinda new doeling Dolly

 Dolly arrived at my farm this past Wednesday . Shes been Rachels since the day she was born from my Tulip on May 8th 2012, she is Cocoas sister. Rachel is pretty sure Dolly was bred by Ringo around 9/11 or that following week. Dolly should be due somewhere around February 8th. This is her first freshening. Dolly is a sweet girl, she reminds me of her momma Tulip, she loves to rub on you.  Dolly was here for a few months this past summer, my herd remembers her from birth and the summer months she spent here, I put her in with them today expecting them to shove her around alittle, nope she fits right in, Cocoa and Star have even been playin with her. I'm glad shes come to live on my lil farm so Rachel can come visit her and the kids.

I "think" shes due early February 

I felt baby kicks in her belly this morning
