Goodness, are your goats going for a hat trick in kids!!!

I, too, notice that kids bottle fed grow like weeds.  I have left the earlier born pygmy on the mother, mainly because of my discolated finger, and less milking needed, that way, and the kid I am bottle feeding is 4 weeks younger, and already catching the other up in size

Oh my god they are cute! What breed are they? I thought your females were angora's, but the kids definitely look like they have been crossed with something else.

The mums are Cashmere crosses first generation, the Billy - Jethro! - was a pure Boer.  I am not milking - although i had planned to milk one to have some milk for us, now fat chance with 3 kids to feed! - but raising to sell as meat

I really like the one (BOY?) with the knee patches - good for playing in mud!

I am still waiting on my last one to kid....
