She had to leave at 3:10 to get her children, and Clarebelle was acting normal when she left.
Maurine got home at 3:45 and they were born.

That made me laugh.
Isn't that just the doe code played out to the end? Congratulations on the adorable little doelings, great way to end the year.

Love the coloring on both but especially the first one. Great birth weights. They look really good! Grats.

Maurine's friend who "sat" with Clarabelle yesterday is a real "keeper".
She is a stay at home mom with 3 small kids. She grew up on a farm in Nebraska and "asked" Maurine if she could come by a few mornings a week and help her feed the animals. Just to get out of the house.
Yesterday, while she was goat sitting, first she cleaned a stall and put fresh bedding in it and moved Clarabelle to that one.
Then she cleaned 3 more stalls.
Then she pulled the weeds in 2 raised beds.

She came this morning to help feed and to see the babies she missed seeing born.
I told Maurine to tell her if she wanted to continue cleaning the barn I would gladly pay her for her time yesterday and today.

WOW! That IS a keeper! hahaha. I am still so happy for you and that you got your girls from the does you wanted!

that is cool to have an extra set of hands helping out!

I could use about 6 extra set of hands right now. But seriously, that was very nice of her. While my DH was in the hospital a friend came by my place on her only day off and cleaned two stalls, moved a doe that had just freshened, fed everyone, and left me food in the refrigerator. Good friends are a blessing.
