Multi tasking

This is how you feed three kids at once!
Victoria has done an excellent job of helping Lizzy raise these babies.
The two weeks of life she was out there feeding two of them every two hours. That takes commitment, especially because we just finished weaning the last one at 9 weeks. Victoria was so happy, I thought she was going to throw away all the bottles. At one time we had 10 bottles at a time filled and ready for feedings. I guess that is why we call her Goat Mama.
This little guy's name is Moo because he looks like a cow!
He was the only one who never got a bottle. 
His mouth was so tight, there was no way he would bottle feed. 
Little Miss Bonnie is such a cutie. She is very much imprinted with us. She was the last one out and never latched on to her mama. So she has always been on the bottle. 
She was also the last one weaned. Now she will stand in the feed trough and holler for Victoria to come feed her. Victoria is going to be showing her in the County Fair in August.
Daphne has adopted Paisley and will be showing her in the County Fair in August as well. 
I am very excited for her.
Apollo is a very sweet goat. He and Moo were adopted by our friend Laura. Moo was having trouble adjusting so she came and got his brother Apollo.
 I am sure that they are doing awesome together now.
