Little Edna (whom we are calling ET for short) is a week old today. I weighed her and she has gained a whole pound in 1 week! I think she's eating really well, don't you? Sorry, the picture isn't the greatest, but it's really windy here today and it makes the cold cut right through you and...

Yeah, more doelings! P79 came through for you on that! They are really gorgeous kids! Congrats. How many total new kids now?:love

When I took our 2 baby goats to the vet last week he told me that the draught has caused lots of birthing problems with most large animals. That's what he caulked it up to. I'm sure the draught affects many things in ways we would never guess. Funny that he brought that up and now there is an...

I've made my own goat milker out of the attachment port and tube from my Foodsaver for less than $6! It works really well. It has a very low suction rate, so not really a worry about too much for a goat. Ginger had an engorged udder from losing 1 baby and the other baby only nurses on 1 side...

She certainly doesn't like her picture taken! Can't blame her, neither do I! Avoid it at all costs! She certainly is very pretty, what I could see of her. Congrats on the new acquistion. She's precious! :love

They're all awfully cute! Congrats! :weee

Thanks for the wonderful comments everyone. Everyone at this forum is so special to me. To make us feel better brought the youngest granddaughter Sarah over (13), who was also grieving at the future loss of a friend moving away at the end of the school year. She hadn't see the babies yet, so...
