The kids are suckling still and have beautiful, thick coats, as has the goatling.
Ellie shed all her cashmere in the last few weeks before kidding. I haven't seen her rubbing and truthfully she couldn't rub between her horns. The rest of her coat seems quite thin - I've noticed her shedding when I'm stroking her. Could it just be hormones?
I've given her a molassed mineral lick (controlled access
) and will give her some Caprivit everyday in case it's vitamins -probably should have been doing that anyway
Yeh, bit worried about a spot-on cos of the kids. She doesn't seem itchy.
