Yeah she had a little milk mustache

Mom took right to her as soon as I brought her out. They 'talked' for a minute and then Sadie got her a good long drink and then they snuggled down for a nap. It was SO SWEET!!

How Sweet!

I hope its ok! I would bundle it up, bring it in the house to warm up and dry... then take her back to mom to eat... I don't have goats, I just love animals.... provided they have 4 legs and fur!

Please keep us posted! I'm rootin' for ya!

We found her on the ground after hearing a few cries from mom, went out to check immediately(she was right out the back door under the deck)...so not sure how long it took....missed the whole darn thing! Sadie wasn't slimy though..so could have been 30 minutes or so since she had been born. Her little legs were like ice and caked with mud. She bounced back quick though and is snoozing with mom now.

I would sooooo love to have some Sadies, but our property isn't fenced well enough. She's adorable!
