I wish we lived closer to each other. You could of dropped him off at my house for daycare and then picked him up after work. :D
I wonder if the doggie day care down the street from work will take him. My purchasing guy thinks I am nuts. My boss has a bottle of goat milk in his fridge and thinks I am nuts. The female QE and Material Handler want to play with him.

If it isn't raining at lunch I will take him out for a little playtime on the grass.

We are supposed to get sleet and freezing rain sometime today, maybe tomorrow. :rant

I just took little boy out for a walk. It is cold out there but he did fine. We walked up and down the grass in front of the building twice. He followed and head bump my knees the whole way. Despite the cold, no shivering and very active.

Best case scenario, he goes back with mom tomorrow. Worst case, he winds up a bottle baby. I am pretty sure we are out of the woods, I just have to moniter transitions carefully.

When I go to your website, all your pictures show as boxes with x's...
You might need to empty your cache on your computer. I think you can do that by cleaning your disk drive.

Glad to hear the little one is doing better.

If it makes you feel any better, I have 2 kiko babies here in a playpen who've been on mom for 3 wks. Walked into this fella's barn today to discover mom near dead, udder dried up, and weak kids......what choice did I have to bring them home? I may 'like' bottle babies, but not when I don't get to keep them and not when they're 3 wks old dam-reared wild things.

The baby is doing fine. I will give him his bottle tonight and then again in the morning. Right after his bottle I will put him with mama and see how it goes. He is so cute. I tried to take his picture but he kept wanting to climb on me.

I did get this one when he was in his box. I have moved him to a cardboard box which is bigger than the laundry basket.

He is a nice boy. He has a wide stance and big solid legs. He is going to be a big boy.

I am just IN LOVE with Nissan's girl. She has this really subtle red roaning in her color. She has the same wide solid frame and big legs as her brother. If she wasn't 3 teated she would be perfect. I am keeping her.

It is supposed to be miserable. We are under a severe weather alert. Sleet, freezing rain and then snow. We are on the far southern tip, I hope it goes a little further north and misses us.

Sounds like kidding weather. Hubby and I created a makeshift "maternity ward" in the barn using the pen walls and two 8' sections of goat panel. All 5 of the could kid any time now crew are in there.

So just curious, but why are you feeding him a bottle and then putting him w/ mom? Don't you want him to nurse her?
