Baby Pics

Sorry to say the camera battery has given out. So not many new photos of late. The first photo below is of one of the new kids born a couple of days ago. I don't diaper until their cords are dry. I keep them off the carpet and all else can be cleaned up easily.

I find diapering the goat kids - boys are easier. I wrap the diaper around their middles to catch the flow. The berries are not difficult to sweep up or use the old handy dandy dust buster.

If the kids are out and about the house they have a diaper on. If they are in their play pens I put a puppy pee pad down, a blanket, sheet or other soft covering over the pad to absorb. I change their bedding in the play pen 3 or more times a day. Have a bit more laundry but I don't mind.

Girls are a bit more difficult on the diapers, they have a tendency to purposely wiggle and walk out of them. It is also easy for them to turn their heads back and chew the connecting tabs off.
Once they reach a size where diapers do not fit, or the weather is nice enough they graduate to the screened in porch, then out to the kid pen.

Thank you for the photo's and writeup. Do you use disposable diapers? I read that you wash the pads.

How amazing! I have never had a goat in the house, although our oldest daughter always had a pet goat.

Those babies are adorable!
