HELP - I think she was pregnant when I bought her!

Sorry I wasn't clear in my last email... I had had a busy, tiresome day.
Yes, I know that feed should be switched gradually for their health and safety. My goats get goat-specific pellets (and sweet feed) and I kept the receipt with the item number on it so I can get the same kind and to keep track of how much I'm spending. When I said 'grain' it was an all inclusive word that was meant to imply feed that has grains of various kinds and is designed for goats specifically. They don't ever get corn. It is just a pain to have to type it all out. Sorry about the confusion.

Just to be on the safe side, I'll keep a label for future reference. Thank you for that advise.

For what it is worth, and this is strictly for your information, not advice or anything, I usually fed my goats COB which is corn, oats, and barley. Sometimes it had molasses added and sometimes it didn't. When I had my dairy my milkers were often fed a mix of rolled corn and whole cottonseed. I got that in bulk from the mill. They milked very well on that. Corn and barley are the two grains that have the most energy and they can be used interchangeably.
 
The babies are here!!! They were born less than 48 hours after hurricane Matthew blew down a tree behind the barn. Windy is the smaller of the two, and she was born first She looks just like her mom. Her brother was right behind her and I was shocked at how big he was! His name is Thunder. Freya's labor seemed easier than the youtube videos I watched. Maybe it was because her first kid was the smaller of the two? I' just glad all three f them are doing well.
