Families

This is not the best picture but the white goat in front has her baby from last year leaning on her shoulder. Behind her is her kid from two years ago. Since she is an older doe, she did not kid this year. We are often amazed at how families nap together and look after one another long after the kids are grown. We once retrieved a doe's grown daughter from another farm after they'd been separated about two years and they immediately took to each other as if they knew they were kin.
