Sounds like they are getting it figured out! My goat kids are not happy this week, mama is starting to wean them (kick them off) and they are NOT happy! Especially in the mornings when I take her away to milk her. But they are eating hay and grain and are plump so no worries.

Goat kids are so cute. Yours are minis, yes? I bet they are adorable.

well, I took mom in on Tuesday because she had diarrhea. The vet gave the kittens, dewormer, and now Snickers has diarrhea. But worse, she has lost an ounce. I’ll call the vet first thing in the morning.

I wouldn’t have noticed, but they have all been trying to use the litter box lately.

I’m hoping this mom will wean the kittens herself, so I don’t have to separate them. But I probably will. They won’t spay her unless she has not been nursing for at least a week.

I bet those baby goats are so darn cute! I’d probably let them in the house.
