baby goats!

I was going to start a new journal for stories and pictures from work, but I got lazy, so here we are.
These guys (Boer goats) were born on Saturday by C-section. Their mother was euthanized last night, after a long struggle. They've been raised by vet students and techs, drink commercial goats milk from baby bottles every few hours and are the cutest animals you've ever seen.





In other news, I got kicked by a horse I was walking today. Now tell me, who on earth gets cowkicked by a HIND hoof MID-BACK while walking at the animal's SHOULDER? Seriously. The odd thing is that when I move, it doesn't hurt at the kick site, but about eight inches lower on my back. I'm thinking maybe it tweaked a nerve or spasmed a muscle and hopefully will fade in a few days.
Not a bad day, though, because: did you SEE those kid goats?
