First goat kid born at my home in years!

I am so excited! In the last few years, I’ve taken up animal husbandry again. So happy to welcome our first kid since the restart!

The temperature and humidity are the worst they’ve been here in years. Wet bulb temperature hit 92F with a heat index of 108F. I was really hoping I was wrong and her due date would be a few more days out so this heat wave would be over. Closely monitoring momma and baby tonight. Once she passes her placenta hopefully we are in the clear!

Also please disregard the mineral block in the dirt. It was removed after the photo was taken. My hanger broke and I am getting a new one this weekend
