Just before in at midnight, Sweet Pea had a doeling and a buckling, and they may just be my favorite kids yet. The buckling Merlin is covered in really cool silver spots, and the doeling Mareva has cute, frosted ears like her mama. We have had hundreds of babies born at the farm over the last 13 years, but every single time is amazing. My favorite thing is waking up the next morning and taking them out into the sunlight to get a really good look at the newest kids. These two are just about perfect And their mom is being a total angel. She even lifts her leg so that the kids can get at her at her more easily for some milk. How thoughtful is that? And the babies are super sturdy and healthy,  they are still getting their legs under them, and often go in reverse by accident instead of moving forward, which always cracks me up. But I bet by tomorrow’s walk, they will be hopping. I love the way mini Nubians talk to their kids, almost like humming!  Wanted to share a little of their sweetness with you! Five other mamas are on deck for the next few days!
