Yesterday, before my husband got off from work. I emailed him to see if he could pick up Saenz from school because I thought March (Obama & Hillary's daughter) was in labor.
I could tell he did not believe me but, he agreed. See with goats, the first labor is usually Hard and Fast. This was March's first pregnancy as well so, I wanted to be there in case she had trouble.
Sure enough less than an hour went by, I had Zephyr outside with me entertaining baby Pices. And in a flash, Plop out came the kid. Zephyr called her Almond.
So welcome to the world baby Almond. After this with the help of my husband; we moved March and her kid ALMOND to a holding pen since Aries was butting the baby. Then we got Pices and I rubbed after birth onto him, to see if March will allow him to nurse with her kid.
Well March is not liking the intrusion so:
We tied her head with a tether to a pole and one of her hind legs. LOL Well greedy eater PICES does not mind getting jostled a bit by Momma March and took to nursing. March is not happy but we will wait a day or two to see if she allows him to feed with her baby -- ALMOND.
IF she doesn't accept him but stays with her own. Great
IF she accepts him I am okay with bottle feeding him.
BUT if she doesn't accept them both then they will be reared together on a bottle.
Either way, it will work out because I am keeping the two kids together.
