Welcome to the farm family!
Last Friday was a big day at the farm with the arrival of five little ones: We are happy to share the exiting news that both our expecting goat mums Snowdrop and her cousin Lemon Sorbet went into labour the same day.
First up was Snowdrop - the more decisive of the two - and in one of the fastest and smoothest deliveries in years she gave birth to two healthy and strong boys. They were up in no time and proud mum Snowdrop was showing her love with kisses, cleaning them up and both boys nursed right away.
When the team was just done helping and tending Snowdrop and her kids, Lemon who as been chatting all along with her friend and the new kids went into labour too. Due to the position of her babies this delivery was a little more difficult, but with some adjustment and assistance from the team Lemon delivered 3 healthy babies, two boys and one girl. All kids are strong and nursing well, despite that two of the babies being much smaller than the third one (the girl and one of the boys), they are all active and thriving.
Both mums made it very well through labour. They are strong, have a lot of milk and are both loving and caring mothers.
During the day each little family spends the time in their stalls where you can see them over a gate. Every day (before and after visiting hours) they already get out for some playtime to explore the place that is their home, stretch their little legs and bounce around. Soon they’ll be ready to come out and meet new friends.
Thank you to all the visitors who came by on this exciting busy day and witnessed the arrival of our newest farm residents.
Thank you for being respectful and patient and giving the mums, their kids and the team space where we needed it.
Thank you for all your questions and kind words. We love to share the stories about our work and life around the animals. They never stop to amaze us- their strength, love and trust.
