On Friday 7th July, Agnes, one of our nanny goats, gave birth to two male kids. As Agnes is a milker, we are raising the kids ourselves. We have one more nanny waiting to have her kids. Florence is likely to have two kids as well. As with Agnes, she is a milker and she had so much milk last week that we decided to milk her to take off some of the pressure. We got six litres though this milk is to be fed to the babies as it's full of collestrum and is not suitable for human consumption. About a week after her babies are born, we can start consuming the milk ourselves.
