Baby Goat!!!!!

Sometime last night Scarlet had a little baby boy! They're both doing fine. Chuck heard him this morning at 7:30 on his way to karate. We got his cord cleaned and tied. He has a cozy box with towels to hunker down in. Scarlet got a treat of wheat cereal and extra grain while we milked her a bit to make sure her teats were flowing so he could get his colostrum. She has passed her afterbirth and is taking good care of him.

Roscoe and MerryWeather were being very sweet with him, but we put them in the paddock to give mom and baby some bonding time. Now there is a lot of MAH! as they holler to each other across the fence.

Now we just sort out what to do with everybody and get into a routine! More pictures coming soon...
