Last year’s quadruplets (all bottle babies because Mocha could not feed them all) grew up. Chocolate Chip suffered a horrible accident (sniff, sniff) and had to be put down, but her twin sister, “Oreo” Cookie, kidded last night! Cookie had a boy and a girl. Comet, the new little buck, is mottled and spotted (justContinue reading “Cookie and Her Kids”

Fun Posters
See more Photo Fridays in Andi’s Attic >> This is my idea of thinking of something to post for Photo Friday. I know it’s not that creative, (scroll down for the actual post, LOL). but it’s been really bus around here. What has Mrs. M been doing, you may ask? Read on. 3. A fewContinue reading “Fun Posters”
The Grand Finale
I have spared everyone a day-by-day update on each goat kidding. So here are the last two: Lola and Leah (Cookie and Prissy are due later). First up (Friday, January 13). Lola is the “queen” of milking, so we are so excited to get two females from her, and they are even named: Diamond (becauseContinue reading “The Grand Finale”
Caught by Surprise
Kristi’s goat, Grace, whom she raised last year on a bottle (because its mom rejected it) is grown up and had her own kid today. A complete surprise, as we thought Grace would not kid until the end of the month. So, here we are on the one beautiful sunny day this week, and allContinue reading “Caught by Surprise”
Here We Go Again!
The “big” dairy goats are dropping their kids in between flooding rain, thunder, and all manner of horrific weather. It was a cloudy but rain-free day today. Do goats know these things? The herd queen, Velvet (100% Toggenburg) for the first time ever (this is her fourth kidding) dropped triplets. Terrible ordeal. Head only, hangingContinue reading “Here We Go Again!”
River Rafting in a Flash Flood
I had to share the latest with the Ross Ranch. We are drowning here in “Andi” country, which makes Family Secret, where Andi nearly drowns in a flooding creek, so real! It could happen just the way I imagined and wrote it. Very scary, those real creeks. Some of them are overflowing even the roadsContinue reading “River Rafting in a Flash Flood”
Baby Goats Round Three (& Four)
Part Two I’m adding Mango’s kids to this post from yesterday instead of creating a new post. MANGO kidded this afternoon, and of COURSE Ellie was not there again (and Mango is her goat). Ellie was in town taking her GED test, but her mother and I successfully delivered triplets. (Okay, so that is 13Continue reading “Baby Goats Round Three (& Four)”
Circle C YouTube Channel
I’m excited because once I had 100 subscribers to my YouTube channel, I could change the link name to what I want. So I named the URL CircleCAdventures, of course! (Since the Back to School giveaway, I now have over 250! Yay!) I even figured out how to put up an awesome banner to makeContinue reading “Circle C YouTube Channel”
Baby Goats Round Two
See more Photo Fridays here >> Long, long night, but Sprinkles kidded around midnight with four sweeties! Two boys and two girls. I’m too tired to write much more but wanted to share a couple of photos and a short video. We think the last two “minions” (AKA Dwarf Nigerian dairy goats) are in earlyContinue reading “Baby Goats Round Two”
First Goat Kids of 2023
January 3 saw Ellie’s goat Coconut kidding. But of course, Ellie was gone for the day with her brother. So, Kristel and I got the joy of the first babies of what is shaping up to be a super-busy kidding time (with atmospheric rivers scheduled for this week). Yikes! But here is the first, andContinue reading “First Goat Kids of 2023”
