Rupert, Latte and Cocoa are more than 2 months old now. Rupert and Latte will be staying with us but Cocoa is going to a new home when she’s around 4 months old. A friend of ours needs a lawn-mower and Cocoa is proving herself to be a very capable one. She’s a sweet goat baby. A little smaller than Rupert and Latte and she has a gentle nature.
Rupert is proving to be a typical male goat. He head butts everything including Zeph and Zsa Zsa. And speaking of Zeph, he and Latte adore each other. I have a soft spot for Latte too. Whenever she sees me, she comes up to me expecting some pats and the best part is when she gazes up – she has amazing eyes. I’m considering renaming her Butterscotch because that is the colour of her eyes.
I often see Zeph and Latte together. Playing or just sharing time. I’ve recently noticed they have a special game. It seems to be all about playing hide and seek around a tree and I managed to get a photo to show you. Just adorable.
Zsa Zsa (being The Point-in-ator) approaches the baby goats with all guns blazing. She chases them all over the place, skittling any games Zeph and Latte may be playing. The goats rush around for a bit and then they turn around and chase Zsa Zsa. Usually Rupert leads the charge, whilst Zeph and Latte take up where they left off.
Zeph and Latte like spending time together.
Latte has the sweetest face.
Zeph and Latte play "let's chase each other around the tree trunk".
Then they forget the game because there's something very interesting to inspect!
