A very good morning...

So, rise and shine.


It is supposed to get up to 60 or so today and tomorrow.  We are ready.


Little Red is not progressing as fast as the other babies did.  I think it has just been way to cold.  I brought her in the house to warm up yesterday for a while.


Then gave her back to her mama after a couple of hours



She looks good this morning, but she is not a spry as she should be at 4 days old.  She still does not follow her mama off down in the field during the day. It is my theory that the best thing you can do for the baby goats is leave them alone.  But, sometimes that is hard.  I wanted to keep her in the house last night, but George said she would be better off with her mother.  He was right.  Maybe a couple of days of warm weather will perk her up.

Maybe the two warm days will help for after Sunday...cold again, but if she can get two good days she will be stronger.
