A welcome surprise!

Little Lilli delivered her cria yesterday!  Big (20.4 pounds), healthy and active; we are delighted!  Did I mention beautiful?  This baby really is...  Or maybe handsome is the better adjective as it is a boy!  Meet Ranger!

We are almost always present for births on the farm, but this one we missed.  Little Lilli was at 346 days gestation, so we knew we were taking a chance, but we had an appointment off island in the morning that we could not cancel.  So we left her  unattended for a few hours, and wouldn't you know it, that's when she delivered. We last checked on her at 8:00 am and all was quiet, but when we got home at 1:30 the new baby was there to greet us!  Delivered, dry, on his feet and nursing!  Great job, Little Lilli!

Nursing like a pro!

Happy boy to have such a good mama!
We are so happy with this little guy - and thrilled to see the very first offspring of Alonzo!  Way to go Little Lilli and Alonzo!
