New Goats - very small goats.

First there were six:
These are two 2-week old goats and four 1-week old goats.

But we still had two pregnancies unresolved.  First to resolve was the doe we affectionally call "Thunder Hips".  Last year, she gave birth to five!  Only one lived, though.  This time, she gave birth to four.  And they have all lived through the first few hours.
Two males and two females.  The one with brown pants is a boy.

And with so many lining up for their turn, the mom needs to do double-duty.




One pregnancy left.  I begin milking next Monday - on the mothers of the six older kids.  Can't wait.
