Kimberly...Not being nosey but wondering what happened to the babies that did not make it?? I am trying to learn what I need to watch for!! She did not have them in her "mini barn" and they are out in open in a small fenced area up walking around when I was out there but I am worried about cold tonight?? as far as not getting enough to eat I would think that would be obvious and take a few days to see...I will bottle feed if I feel one or both need it but hope if that happens I can just supplement mom and they still nurse some also!
Poor nanny!![]()
We have had 8 goats born the past 4-5 days, and only 4 survivors I think. DH will not let us bottle feed any this year. He wants to let the strongest survive. Of course I miss my bottle fed girl...She just disappeared over night over the summer......I had left her out and not put her up... she would not leave our yard...she was scared of other goats....when scared she would hide behind people if they were around! ... we did find her collar but never her. I even walked over 8 acres of land and over a mile up and down our road calling her. She always answered me when I called! NOTHING. Since she was a bottle baby, she loved people. I am hoping the man a couple of miles from us with goats got her ....maybe someone found her and took her to him. I have not seen her there though. No one answered my lost goat ad either.
