He was born Monday morning, and again Gazelle the mom choose a very, very cold day but now I was prepared and installed a goat safe heating lamp. It's a healthy little boy, tho quite large, but then, he's all by himself, enjoying free access to all the milk he can get!
Hopefully the snow will disappear soon - and stay away! - so mommy and kid can enjoy the outdoors, play on the goat playhouse and eat fresh grass (I'm sure there is some somewhere...).
Simon likes to visit after school and hang out with the little one, and he's becoming quite friendly. I hope the other kids, Thirteen could go any moment, show up soon so he'll have some friends to play with :)
A short video of our new baby goat kidding around!
p.s. Gazelle is part lamancha, so she has no ears (her nubs are called fairy ears, some lamancha have nothing at all). In case you'er wondering :)
