Meet The New Kids

So what has happened since I last blogged? Terra Cotta kidded. Triplets! We named them Thorin, Fili, and Kili. :) Thorin's the biggest followed by Kili. Fili was the smallest. Fili was never really healthy. We believe that her big brothers got most of the nourishment while in their mother. We did every thing that we  could for her. When we couldn't do any thing else for her, we made her as comfortable as possible. Thorin and Kili went to their new homes on Tuesday. Later that night Sydney kidded. Twins. A buck and a doe. They are both BIG! Emma and I named the girl Aravis and the boy Tiny Tim. He couldn't stand properly for the first couple days because his leg had been cramped in a bent position while in his mom. But now he's fine. His nickname is Tiny. :) Even though he is a big boy. Calvin and Luther are growing fast. Rebel Yell is trying to keep up with them. :) They are now in a outside pen during the day. Usually they come in for the night but that is about to change. Later today I'll be moving their pen to a more open,sunny patch in the side yard. Then on nights when it is cold I'll wrap sleeping bags around the sides to help keep them warm. Because I'm tired of moving them in and out every morning and evening. :)

Kili. He is around 2 1/2 lbs. He's SO cute!

This is my favorite! Libby with her goaties.

Did I mention that Thorin and his siblings were Mini goats? That's why they're so small. :)
