Introducing . . .

Twin Willows S Babbo Natale
CONGRATULATIONS to Beth Wood, of Fort Wayne, Indiana for suggesting Babbo Natale, which is the Italian phrase for Santa Clause.  The family narrowed this name down from over SIXTY entries.  For a buckling born on Christmas Eve, we think the name is just perfect.  Beth wins her choice of any two scented Goat Milk soaps from Twin Willows.  Thank you to everyone who participated in the contest.  We had many, many great names to choose from, and it was a really fun experience to choose a winner! 

From all of us to all of you, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year!

Christmas Babies are HERE!

Early this Christmas Eve morning, Twin Willows SB American Honey kidded with two beautiful bucks out of Helmstead Minis FF Scorch! The first (black with white and moonspots) weighed 3.8 lbs at birth.  The second (chamoisee with moonspots) weighed 3.0 lbs at birth.  Both were searching for milk before they even stood up! Honey is a great momma, and all are happy and healthy.  These two will be available as unregistered bucks or wethers.  Names will be announced soon (as well as the winner(s) of the baby naming contest!  From everyone at Twin Willows Farm, we hope that everyone has a very Merry Christmas!

I have constructed a time lapse of Honey's first freshened udder, and would like to share the process with you.  The last pic (Day 146) was taken this morning and she is still pre-fresh. Click on the pic to enlarge.

I wanted to publish the entries we have gotten so far in our Christmas baby naming contest to provide some more inspiration, and also just because it's FUN!  I deleted the names that did not follow the rules of the contest, and some names were submitted by more than one person.

Keep these entries coming!  We are getting SO CLOSE!  I am predicting that Honey will go into labor this coming weekend or early next week. Can't wait to see these babies!
