When I took care of the goats early this morning, I didn't notice any obvious signs that Daisy might be going into labour. More of the same pre-labour signs. About 2 hours later, Campbell was playing soccer and came in yelling that Daisy was lying down in the barn. As I grabbed my camera and some old towels, one of the kids screamed "There's a head!". By the time I got there, the baby was out except for his legs.

Introducing Mickey, or "A boy named Sue". Born on my mother's birthday, she got naming privileges. |

Drying him off. |

Bonding time. Daisy did a fantastic job licking him (and anything that got near her tongue). |

Kira. |
He was born 4 days before his "due date". He seems healthy and strong and he feeds like a champ! Now to find a good pet home for the little guy.
