This is my Baby Bottle Buckling, Fluffernutter!
A Mothers Love!
Fluffernutter was the first goat I ever bought as a bottle baby and I am so glad I did! On our farm we allow the dams to raise their kids and we don't do bottles unless it is an emergency. But on many farms the kids are pulled off the mom's and started on a bottle right away for many reasons. The picture above was from 3 months ago in September. You can see he has grown big and strong and is very affectionate. I loved having a bottle baby and having a goat consider me his momma! Next month Fluffernutter will be one year old! Boy does time fly!
So yesterday as I was petting my sweet boy I noticed something different as he turned his head! Something the signifies my baby boy is really growing up! He had finally grown a testosterone filled beard! And it is CUTE!
I mean, would you look at it!? Just look at it! It's an adorable little curl!!! How CUTE is THAT!? This little guy is going to be our herd sire some day and we hope he breeds 2 of our does this season. He is out of great genetics and we expect a bright future for this sweet little nugget!
As I squeal with excitement at "His cute wittle beardy!" he turns away like an embarassed teen saying "Stop Ma!"...
I know, I know, he's JUST a goat Rose! But my goats are all my spoiled babies! A bottle baby really has a way of winning your heart and now he's a young man and my baby is growing up...
