This was when the goats were suppose to start kidding, not 5 weeks ago when they actually did. It was also suppose to be warmer at the first of April than in the middle of February but that isn't working out either.
These were born Tuesday afternoon. They were up and nursing despite the cold and snow. Another goat had twins right at dark. J and I went out and milked her and tubed the kids to make sure they had something overnight. But this morning one was down and out of it. We brought him in, tube feed him and put him on the heating pad. He's up and nursing this evening but now the nanny won't take him back. It's always something.
