Brownie gave birth and it was twins!!! This is our second set this year! Fred and Ethel were born on a terrible wintery day. There was ice everywhere and we could not get Brownie out of the big pasture into the smaller one. So we went with "giving it to nature." Thankfully Brownie is a great mom and ten days later, both babies are doing well. But even with the nice weather we're having now, they are a worry. Brownie goes about her herd behaviors and it is up to the twins to keep up. They've had a tough time doing that and we have had to go out, find the missing baby, and reunite the family. I'm confident Brownie would do it herself, but we get worried when the family is not all together. Yesterday we spent a total of 2+ hours looking for Ethel without any luck. We gave up at dark and this morning Ethel was with her mama and Fred. So much for being caretakers....
When we took these two pictures, Brownie kind of pushed both babies forward. She wanted us to see her beautiful babies! Moms are all alike!
