Oh my. They don’t even look real they are so tiny and sweet! Today Maizy had 4 of the littlest goats we’ve had in long time! The littlest is less than 2 pounds! 2 boys, 2 girls and all 4 are up on 4 legs and have done lots of nursing! I worry a little more when they are this small, but I’ll know by morning how things look and so far they are amazing! Each one looks totally unique! Send them all your love for a strong start to life. Maizy seems peaceful and happy after a long day.
We are continuing our Maine theme and working through the alphabet! These goats are named: Frannie for Maine icon/AIDS activist Frannie Peabody and also Franklin county, she is mostly white with little brown spots and mascara! Flapjack, the tiniest dark buckskin boy, is named for an island in Cushing. Fiddlehead,named for the edible fern that grows in Maine, is the biggest doe who is tricolored and was last to arrive. Farnsworth, the second buck, is a brownish/gold boy with a white frosted nose and ears. He is named for the art museum in Rockland that is home to many Wyeth paintings!
