Heads in Hay

Nov

How many heads are in there?

And yes, that’s me using Clover’s milk stand for a hay rack. I’ve been too distracted by THE COW to milk the goat. However, I will have a second chance soon with a possibly more cooperative subject.

Nutmeg’s waddling more than usual. I suspect she’s going to have some babies in a couple of months. If she doesn’t blow up because she’s so fat already that I think she’s been pregnant for about two years.

    Ah, Nutmeg, you’ld best have a baby cow to get Woman’s attention. Since Glory Bee arrived we’ve heard precious little about Clover, Pirate, and Sailor. Not that Glory Bee isn’t cute…just sayin’

    posts!

    I counted 6, but I’m willing to be wrong. 🙂

    What’cha gonna go with all those babies?

    I counted 6 too but am probably wrong. 🙂

    Oh little fat Nutmeg! Maybe you’ll FINALLY have a chance to lose that pre-baby weight you’ve been carrying! What a sweetie!

    It’s about time Nutmeg got serious about something. That makes Clover a grandmother. Does Clover know that?

    I count seven. How many babies can a goat have at one time?
    Just wondering.

    I think I count seven heads. Maybe. I love the close-up of Nutmeg. I remember having goats on the ranch I grew up on, and they always tried to eat my hair and climb trees. Crazy goats. Jeffrey and Pierre.

    adorable! I love the name of nutmeg!

    Goats can have four at a time–our neighbors had a set of quads a month ago. The last-born died, but the rest are fine.

    I know how Nutmeg must have flet…when I was pregnant with my first, I reached “Shamoo” status rather quickly. There was a good natured guy at work that would tease me about “still being pregnant” every time he saw me, which was every other day! He would also ask me if I was going to be pregnant as long as an elephant! As I got nearer to the delivery date, it seemed like I had been pregnant for 2 years!(He he he)
