Meet Snickerdoodle! Baby Goatling #1

💫 D.O.B: May 2, 2024

💫 Proud parents: Balini (mother) & __👀__ (father)

💫 Siblings: uhhhhhmmmmm..... welp. None-ish?

She is 1 of three babies (triplets, its called). Except everyone decided to make an early entrance (do we call them preterm? It was 5 days early- ish. We dont know exact due date bcuz math.. and animals dont match.. but i guess its a wing it thing in the animal world) and 2 goat babies didn't make it. (It happens when you don't learn patience... something I get reminded of on the regular, no i havent figured it out yet. As if, huh?!).

So anyways. obviously snickerdoodle is a rugged Lil goatling! Farm tested, country strong,... And she is stinking cute. Her mom agrees. Sometimes. If she feels like it. Like especially when we try to get snickerdoodle to like us.

Her pregnant aunties though (!) are barely putting up with her shenanigans (some handle it better then others) as she waits impatiently for some goatling to come play. Sometimes she climbs on top the other aunties to encourage the goatlings out to play. She hasn't been successful yet! Actually she is pry scaring the goatlings to stay in a lil longer. Which is fine with us!

She isn't human friendly yet, the kids (maybe some grownups but we aren't talking about that) are working on it though. She acts like she is gona be your friend and then last second jumps away as if you tried to eat her for lunch. It's a hoot! Maybe we can get a picture later.

Well, story time is over. We can easily come up with more. Guess we will fake being grownups today. For now, you go finish that laundry an getting that mud tackled that seems to keep on showing up. Oh, you already did that?! High five! I didnt. That's why the story keeps growing. 🫣

P.S. did you know?! The smallest goats out here can have up to FIVE babies!? Yes! You read that right! Have you seen how small these pregnant goats are?! Come check em out an have some goodies with me while we sip our cup of coffee... or tea. Maybe you'll be here when a baby is born an you can name it. Goodness knows we gona be throwing letters together and hoping we get it at the end of all these babies!
