They will be a good addition for school groups and day care centers. They are small and full of energy. Pip stopped long enough for a photo shoot.
Today is our anniversary, 23 years strong. We are still working as farmers this year. We have reduced the herd to three girls: Gracie, Ophelia and Lily. After a much needed break from October to January, the girls came home bred from a farm in Lamont IL. We managed to contact a veterinarian in Monece IL and transported them for annual blood tests. While there we celebrated by buying two mini nubians, three weeks old. Our big girl babies will arrived in April and May. Meanwhile we look forward to playing with these two little guys, Frodo and Pip weigh less than 10 pounds. They require feeding twice a day but are fun and busy.
