I just love all the babies' frizzy 'doos!! Do they always have those, or did you just get lucky?

there so cute. where did you get that heater.

I want to say both heaters proabably came from Wal Mart since there is no other store around and we have to drive almost an hour just to get to Wal Mart. There's a tall metal radiator style heater in there as well as the small blower heater. They love both and can always be found sleeping curled up next to them. I like the small blower heater because it blows warm air but the outside doesn't get too hot to touch. Only problem with it is it tends to cut itself off a lot even if you set the temp at something like 85. So, just in case, I have the raditor heater in there, run on a different outlet, just to be sure there's always heat going.

I love these little babies. They are starting to bounce all over the room. We have them in the tack room that also serves as my Sportsman incubator room and my hatchery so it's nice and warm in there and safe.

I love

them. Baby goats are the most adorable things!
my only question now is why there are no updated pics

Well.....since you asked. They are adorable and even more so now that they are playing together and bouncing around the room like little Mexican Jumping Beans.

Here's lots of pics - especially of Jack, Jr. and Confetti Jr. who were feeling especially photographic the other night. One Spot and No Spot tended to elude the camera.

Lots of pics of Confetti, Jr., especially since there's someone that's interested in buying her:

One Spot is in this pic:

No Spot is in these pics:

Lots of pics of Jack, Jr. who is especially friendly and playful and crawls up on my lap or leg. Here he is sleeping in the lap of a little girl who was visiting this weekend:

So far, all are gaining weight and seem healthy and playful and mama is doing great though she is eating a ton and drinking water like a camel. She can down an entire huge bowl of water in one gulp. I guess it takes a lot to produce that much milk.

I am in love,wish you lived closer....

The little quartette is doing great - growing by leaps and bounds and leaping and bounding all over the room. I'm supplementing Confetti's feedings with bottle feedings and they seem very appreciative, as does the mama who tends to hang out on her milk stand to avoid being ambushed constantly. The babies are getting to join the rest of the herd, outside, when it's pretty and warm (unfortunately cold and raining today so all stayed inside). The mama, Confetti, especially seems to enjoy being with the "grown ups". She's a doting mama but geez when these four hit I feel sorry for her.

They love to crawl all over me and up my pants leg.

And are already practicing their circus routines.
