New kids

The new kids are growing, all they do is eat and sleep and play late in the evening. There are red,brown and black kids, where one goes, the other follows. Set them up a creep yesterday so they can sleep and eat without the does disturbing them. They are starting to nibble on alfalfa hay, but mostly goat milk. It's amazing how powerful goat milk is, I raised a litter of Pyrenees puppies on goat milk years ago when Cassie, the mother, had little milk. I have never seen puppies grow so fast. I have raised many bottle kids and lambs on goat milk and they outgrow the ones left on the doe or ewe. Milk replacer is not much of a replacer to me. I don't use it.
