I have yet to check the breeding records, but George insists this kid's father is our young oberhasli buck goat, Steve. From what we have heard the breed colours are very dominant - and these kids sure are making us believe that. From a black la mancha mother with *very* small ears (almost none whatsoever) we got two females, both of which look exactly like this - which is exactly like Steve. I've been meaning to take some pictures of the babies we've gotten this spring, but keep forgetting or putting it off. I will have to get some pictures of the lambs before they get much bigger.
I played with the fill light/highlights, cropped, saturated, and sharpened this shot in Picasa.
Ok.. edit this. These two were from an alpine mother (with ears). Apparently we have two sets of "Steve babies" - the ones from the la mancha goat look identical except they are earless.
