All the babies are muddy and wet and tired of this weather.

Except for Ophelia and Odette. They are warm and dry inside with their mama.

It looks as Ophelia and Odette are doing well. That’s wonderful! Is Linda also recovering from her ordeal?

Adorable photos. Even if the little outside guys don’t look very happy, they sure look cute.

I think I am going through goat withdrawal

I just love little Ophelia and Odette and they look so comfy in their little pink jackets.

Looks like we will have to run everyone through the goat wash before Saturday!

They may be filthy, but they are still the cutest little things I ever did see! (and there certainly is a gang of muddy kids making a huge mess of the hay bin! lol!)

You mentioned on Ravelry that you may have to bottle feed one of the twins due to Ms Linda’s age. We’ve seen how the kids can be rough as they get older – practically butting their moms for milk. Do you think you will have to bottle feed or can she withstand being chased for a drink?

Those kids are absolutely filthy now over on the Lambcam playing King of the Mountain on the plastic feeder!

How is it that they are even cuter when they are covered with mud???

My friend and I kept taking mini-breaks at work to watch the kids play in the mud. I can remember way back when I thought playing in mud was just the greatest thing! My mom, however thought otherwise!

I’m so glad to see the little girls doing so well and I’d really love to see a new photo of Ms. Linda. After all those days of trying to look at her hoo-ha, it would be nice to see her relieved face again.

I. Feel. Your. Pain.

All those dirty, dirty kids…

Hey, considering where you’ve been finding chickens lately (and your love of oatmeal), you should appreciate the cartoon at the top of this blog post. (The recipe looks pretty tasty, too.)

Hey, you’re missing a fundraising opportunity – Sponsored Goat Wash!

Maggie May 6, 2009 at 11:33 am

Dirty dirty critters! Need to go swimming in a creek, once the weather gets warm.

It’s astounding how much bigger Ophelia looks than her sister! Like different births, really.

omg. I’m so glad the little babies are penned up–the others have gotten really gross. lol But even though their gross dirty, they’re adorable–I just want to kiss them!!! Wish I was coming Saturday, but as it turns out I’m needed here, so it worked out well for me.

Stacey May 7, 2009 at 12:13 pm

I love how all of your critters look like they are smiling.
