the kids have been watching to see how much milk we get each morning so that another batch of Tapioca pudding can be made or maybe use the milk to make chocolate pudding for dirt cups - might have enough to make both by tomorrow morning. Coco is giving about 1.5 cups each morning- she stands okay until she finishes the food in the feeder and then starts dancing around 
. DH has been helping to keep her still until I finish milking her.
DH had a short day today so we were able to figure out what area is getting fenced to give more room- now to get all the materials!

Our boys will start it at a few hours old Brats I tell ya!
I wouldn't be to concerned about it, he is young enough it wont harm his sisters. Sometimes they will even chase the adult does around..... my one adult doe was terrorized last year, yep a five week old buckling chasing around a 60lb nigi
