OH MY GOODNESS!! They're adorable! I had no idea they were so small! I knew they got to the size of a medium or large dog, but not that small! ^_^ Wonderful set of kids!

Your bucklings are just too adorable for words! I got my first mini-herd a few months ago (a breeding pair and two babies). I learn something new every day, and I look forward to when I have several little babies running around like this. :-)

Beautiful triplets! There's nothing better than bouncing goat kids.

Pygmy goats can have from one to four babies in a litter. Rarely, they have been known to have FIVE, but not often. Silver, the mom of these three, has had two previous sets of triplets and one "single" kid. This year she actually had quads but unfortunately we lost the first born to hypothermia at birth - it was 14F outside (yes, in mid-April) and I wasn't prepared (sigh). We were able to save the other three though and are grateful for that.

OK, here we go again! I recorded all our Pygmy goat kids as they grew last spring and summer and had a blast doing it and reading the responses. So I'm doing it again this year. :)
This is my way of sharing my fun with friends too far away to come visit us. Btw, this is Silver's third set of triplets - these boys names are; Spring Promise Chill Factor ("Chilly"), SP Cold Snap ("Snap") and SP End 'O Winter Wonder ("Wonder"). Too cute. Enjoy!
