The Barnyard Bunch

The kids (goat kids) have grown a lot. Today is a rainy day, so the kids stayed in-doors (or rather, in-stall). I got some pictures of them anyway, and they were just as playful as ever!

Buckwheat, Ellie and Spring, all posing in a line (one of the triplets got out of the line, I guess!)
Daisy and Ruger, with Daisy showing some sisterly affection

Ellie, as independent as ever

Ellie and Spring

Buckwheat, climbing on the stall door (his eyes aren’t really that blue!)
Daisy, Remington, Ruger and Ellie

Clockwise, from left: Remington, Ruger, Daisy and Ellie (this photo was taken at a very strange angle, so tilting your head may not help!)

Spring (isn’t she cute!)

Buckwheat (doesn't he look chubby?)

Smile, Buckwheat!

Ruger and Ellie (probably lamenting the fact that there is no hay left in the hay feeder since they ate it all!)

Buckwheat, Remington (laying down), Daisy, Spring and Ellie. Buckwheat, Daisy and Ellie seem to be wondering “Where’d all the hay go?”

“Could you give us more hay please?”

Since there wasn’t any more hay, Buckwheat and Spring decided to plunder the grain feeder while Ellie stood on guard.

When the grain feeder was sufficiently empty, Ruger, Remington and Buckwheat curled up for a nap.

See you at feeding time, kids! And that’s it for now with the small goats…

The big goats are all doing well. Showgirl and Wales are doing well…

Touché is, too.

While Tatty, on the other hand, has a very different personality. She is a very friendly goat (most of the time). She also likes posing for pictures!

Smile!

She likes being close to people…

She also is very spunky and sometimes stubborn…

But she is very remorseful!

But only when she is caught, because she always gets put back inside the fence!

Meggy is a very good goat.

Tatty is too!

Then there’s Poquito, always willing to pose for a photo.


Well, that's all from Green Gambrels for now. Hope you enjoyed the pictures!
