Phoebe and Ursula

This is little Phoebe. See how she holds her left leg backwards? Well, yesterday, she's walking on it and today it's a lot better. Someone said it could be because her bigger sister might have been laying on her in the womb. She is just the sweetest little girl ever. And has the cutest baby cry. Her sister is quiet. But not this one!











And this is the bigger doeling. I decided to name her Ursula, after the show Friends. Phoebe and her twin sister Ursula. I think the names fit perfectly. This girl is about half the size of Phoebe. And looks all Boer. She's a doll. And very good.

Penelope is doing great. I had her on the stand last night and this morning and milked out a quart each time. Her udder is AMAZING! And so east to milk. Her teats are a bit too big when she's full so it helps to milk her out some so the kids can nurse easier. But she's going to be a dream to milk. The 2 year wait is well worth it.

I'm glad she's a great milker for you! The kids are adorable!

Love the names. One of our new Alpines is Phoebe. The breeder called her Pheemie, but that just didn't set right for me so I changed it. ;)
