Claire is 7 Weeks Old!!

Claire is 7 weeks old now and doing great.  She is a big girl so we decided it was time to separate her from her mom at night so I can milk mom, Windy in the morning.  She is in the pen at night with Chloe and she is doing wonderful so far.  I haven't even heard her cry once.  Claire is also a very quiet Nubian like her mom.

The big news is we have found a new home for Claire.  She will be going to her new home the beginning of July after she finishes all of her worming and shots.  This was another reason why we are separating her from mom at night so we can start to wean her and have her eating grain real well by the time she goes to her new home.  She is already eating hay and pasture real good.

Claire has become best buddies with Chloe since we have moved Cole & Carter over to the buck pen.  They go off into the pasture with the big goats and they love to run and play.

Sweet Claire
