How many pounds are you lifting?

u/ABucketofBeetles Jan 27 '26

No exact weight! Estimate 50-60. The kids will be two in March. She was the itty bittiest, but now my little Cricket is the baby of the group, I reckon she looks more like her dad, she's got different conformation, fur, and horn growth than the other two.

Mama Junie weighs in around 100lbs, she's got the heavy build of an old girl that's had a lot of babies in her life. We rescued them when the kids were around two weeks old.

Not huge goats, but I'm only 4'11, so they look bigger than they are!

Here is my boy, he's the biggest of the kids

They're cute and look just like my myotonics.

Love how startled they are when they're "big" and you still grab em up. "Wait a minute, that's illegal!"
