Our New Doeling from South Carolina!

Introducing,....Bella  " )     Born April 13th, she's a registered Nubian. She is really sweet-natured. She has had loose stool, but things are firming up with  time and getting used to the routine and new home. Here she is enjoying being around us while we work in the garden planting more tomatoes. I believe one of the greatest stresses to her is being isolated, so we try to spend time with her walking around the property and inside the pasture with the other goats. She is too small to leave alone with them yet, so we are her "herd" for now...We are using a dogpen and moving it around to let her graze and be outside of her stall.

We are even busier around here with her and the chicks too!  (Tomorrow we plan to divide out the broiler chicks-they are twice as big as the layers!-into a chicken "tractor" to give everyone more room to grow.)

Here come the rest of the home crew to investigate...
