Baby Goats!

Okay, okay....I know it has almost been a week since they've been born, but considering these two little girls are bottle babies (which means we feed them all their milk every 4 hours!)....I think I'm doing pretty good getting some pics up now. 

 

Waiting with Classie to give birth.  She was in active labor here and wanted to sit with us for comfort.  Babies arrived in under an hour from these pics.  In fact, I did not realize how close she was and all of a sudden she started pushing and I had to run back to the house for the kidding kit with all the towels and birthing items we would need.  Once she started pushing the babies were out within 30 minutes.

 

We were so excited to get twin doelings! 

 The black one is named Bearded Acres Polly Want a Cracker.

And the brown one is Bearded Acres First Mate Matilda.

Caroline was excited to meet the babies.  They conveniently arrived during Caroline's afternoon nap!
