Our New Baby Goats

The day after Christmas we received a wonderful surprise our goat Coco had a set of twin girls. It was an extremely cold and rainy day and we were lucky because we had just moved Coco into the barn that morning. We were so thankful because the babies were born in a nice warm area and out of the elements. 

Our girls couldn't have been more excited with the sweet babies. Coco is a kiko goat and the father is a boer goat.  We plan on entering the new goats this year in the county fair, but for now we will just enjoy watching them grow.

We named the goats Clarice and Hollly. Aren't they adorable?

Sophia's wether goat Kermit is a very proud uncle. Coco and her babies were kept separate from the rest of the heard during their birth, but Kermit manged to sneak in with us shortly after the babies were born. Kermit is seriously the sweetest animal ever!

Needless to say, we are loving these sweet little ones and we can't wait to watch them continue to grow. This is one of our favorite parts of the Farm.
