Granny's gone and done it again

My Christmas present this year...

Hubs installed it today. :love
Now both coops have one. Very convenient.
 
And Socks was out in the pasture, so i figured she wasn't ready to kid yet. I went to work some more in the barn. Decided to go measure how tall the goats are. In the goat house, Socks was laying down with two kids, and another still in the amniotic sack! I opened the sack, broke the umbilical cord and stripped off my shirt to dry the kid with. I worked on that kid for about 20 minutes, but she just wouldn't start breathing. Tried suction, compressions, and little puff of air up her nose. Made me cry because she was so beautiful and perfect, but i guess drowned in the anmiotic fluids.
Anyway, she had 2 others and still looks as big around as ever.
