Arrival of Moses first kid
Thank you to Finn, who suggested that Moses call his fourth goat "Cosby", no sooner had I named her, than Cosby was shipped out to a friend in Augrabies, she will return, but not for a few weeks.
I have been giving the remaining three goats scraps from the kitchen , all shared between the goats and the geese and I have to say Bongo and Bee who have both decided that they are partial to the odd piece of drowsy lettuce, and dry cucumber. Yesterday I noticed Billy was very lethargic and not as keen as the others to race up to the fence for scraps.
Overnight she had her baby. Cute at only a few hours old. I don't know what sex it is yet, as I was very aware of Billy crying for her baby and didn't want either Bossy or I to disturb them any more than we had already done.
So More suggested names, as I have not been constrained by gender thus far..no suggestions need this restriction.

What an adorable picture! That kid is darling and Big is being very careful with him/her. No wonder Bee thinks it's a darling baby.

Its is absolutely adorable, a reddish brown all over except for its four feet. Quite the most handsome of all the goats in Moses krall. Moses wants to give it to me..and I asked Gerritlast night,[ Lake Grappa] what would I do with a goat? [still no idea on sex]. He said: you feed it up and when it as about 18 months, you bring it to me and I make it into chops for you..............No ,No ,NO!
