After the trauma of last time we were very anxious.

I'm pleased to say Mimi has had 2 beautiful kids.





Mimi is looking after them very well, and enjoying her breakfast.

OK one boy and one girl

the dark one with the light undersides is a girl and the larger more tawny one with the white stripe across the back is a boy. Names are being thought of, suggestions accepted.

This time it was a lot less stressful, Mimmi did it all on her own, it was a fait accompli by 8am this morning. She had obviously read all the right books about goats giving birth easily.

Next one is Blåblomme, she's due around the 11-Jan fingers crossed for another uncomplicated delivery.

Baldr seemed quite excited this morning to have someone to play with! I think they're gonna have a lot of fun in a few weeks.
