On Nov. 15th, I had a even bigger SURPRISE!! I found a kid in the goat pen, which I thought was strange because I locked the babies with their mom in a stall the night before. I thought it was George at a quick look, but I noticed she was quite a bit smaller than George, then I noticed the white stripe down the face! Sure enough Flopsy gave birth sometime in the night OUTSIDE, which was a complete shock; Flopsy wasn’t due for another week, and her udder wasn’t filling out. I was worried that she wouldn’t have enough milk for Harmony. I was very fortunate that Francy still had colostrum. Soon enough her udder started filling out and she was able to feed her baby. I didn’t weigh her, but I believe she was around 7lbs.
Gotta love those ears!
Sweet, innocent, loving Harmony.
Most of the kids are scared of Jack, but not Harmony!
