They're Here - They're Here

Pepper finally had her babies this afternoon - Triplets - 1 doe and 2 bucks and they are all gorgeous! The little doe came about 3:15 with absolutely no problems, then about 10 to 15 mintues later (didn't have a watch on) came brother number 1 - backwards. Needless to say, that scared me, but we got him out and cleaned off his face and the mucus out of his mouth and he is definately a little fighter. Brother number 2 came out about 30 minutes later. (Aly and I finally had to take the first two and hold them so mom could go about her business of having the third.) He came out backwards too, but is doing great! Mom and all 3 kids are resting peacefully in the barn now. We went out to check on them a little while ago and they are still a little wobbly but everyone is moving around well. They already love being held and petted.

Baby #1 - the doe - she is going to be a real beauty with that gold (almost blonde) coloring.

Baby #2 - a buck - what a flashy little guy he is.

And Baby #3 - the other buck - he's more brown than the doe (he's still wet in this picture) and has the sweetest little white markings on his nose - he's a real doll.

All three of these little goats are for sale at our website www.fourzsminiz.com.
