Just Kidding Around!

The twin goat kids will be 1 week old tomorrow. It doesn’t take them long, however, to start jumping and skipping around all over the place. This morning when I put some hay in the pen for their Mama, they decided it would be fun to crawl all over it. Making a mountain out of a molehill…. uh, hay pile.
Goat mothers must be very long-suffering, because their kids are full of antics!

Most of the time Cinnamon just keeps on eating and ignores her youngsters shenanigans.

Kids! They get into everything!

Every once in a while, they do stop long enough for a scratch or to take a nap.

Hold on a second! I’ve got an itch.

Whew, I’m tired. How about a little nap?

They’re mighty cute little guys, and at least while they’re little, they don’t cause much real trouble. That comes later, when they hit the goat equivalent of teenager and adulthood. Then it’s find every hole in the fence you can – or make one! Find ways to open gates at every opportunity! See if you can break into the feed room or hay storage!

That’s when cute becomes incorrigible. And I’m not kidding!
