I'm so excited, I don't have any foals coming this year, so this is as close as I will get. They are Nigerian Dwarf goats, Willow is the mom, and the proud dad is Checkers. She had the first one around 9pm last night, and then the next two came one after the other (backwards of course) around 9:30. Two girls and a boy! The boy was born in the middle. They are adorable, mostly white with black & brown patches. Of course she had to pick the coldest night in 2 weeks, so I had to pull out the hairdryer to help them get dry and warm.

I will post pictures later today after I get some good ones, it was too dark last night.

We use a tree theme for our goat names, so I'm trying to come up with either varietys of willow trees, or flowering spring trees, suggestions are welcome!

I always wish I could sell them to places that I would keep in touch like the horses, but it's not as easy.
