Pixie Delivers!

Our youngest goat has just delivered a brown female kid. It was her, and our, first time but the mothering instinct took over and she did everything right. I missed the actual moment of delivery as I decided to take an early lunch in preparation for the delivery. I arrived in time to see a very wet kid lift its head and look around for the first time.
Within a few minutes she was standing and trying to feed. We are thrilled that all has gone so well with minimal intervention. After some discussion we have decided to call her Fay.
