Well, Riot decided she needed to live up to her name once again and freshened a few days early. 😅
I’m still not entirely sure how she managed that considering she was only bred once on a lead line, but at 10 PM she surprised us with a beautiful little doeling weighing just 2.9 lbs.
The funniest part? Riot did the whole thing in complete silence. I checked on her around 8 PM and she was just starting to lose her mucus plug and hadn’t bagged up much. I checked the camera again around 10 PM and… surprise! Baby goat already on the ground. Apparently she didn’t feel the need to notify management. 😂
Riot did have a second kid that was lost at some point during gestation and was delivered with the placenta. Thankfully, Riot is doing well and her little doeling has already had plenty of colostrum.
Now the important question… what should we name her? 🐐💕I have some ideas floating around.
