I've raised triplets before, pgymys.And the kids daddy was a bottle boy.He's 6 yrs old, gives me kisses when no one is looking. My kids are out of the tub.I have a shower curtian & blankets on the floor,newspapers.Alot of cleaning,lol.I'm keeping the white girl as she looks like her mama,Heidi.I kept a choc. color pgymy girl from the other triplets,Kathy is so sweet. Last year I bottle fed two milk goats I bought & a bull calf.At the same time, but kept in a pen.I have hand raised so many animals & take in strays,lol.My son says I'm the patron saint of goats,lol.I hand raised a common pigeon till he was growned, then released him in a park.I love my goats!I make goat milk soap now.When my 2 milkers have kids in April, I'll have my hands full again.Blessings!

I took care of goats on my Dad's ranch from age 12 until I went to college. I fed a few, too. I also learned to milk them, too, when Dad bought a couple of Nubians so my sister and I could have the benefits of goat milk.
You will love the QB and learn a lot, too, along with the fun we have.
