AN UPDATE ON VAL'S PREEMIE'S

[@mariaakers8961]

It sucks the little one didn’t make it! She was so gorgeous! Hopefully the others stay strong!❤️

[@LindaNickelLittleLinda]

Ya really! She was so precious and adorable. I wouldn't have minded having her for myself if I had a goat pen.

[@aprilhill333]

Viking for the buck, Valkyrie for the bigger doe, Valaria for the smaller doe. Strong names for the little cuties

[@cb5117]

Great names!!!

[@marynellessen8790]

They are doing fantastic! My baby “Junior” (he’s a year old now) was strong when he was born but could not figure out how to suck and latch on. He went down hill quickly, on deaths door. I brought him in the house and fed him by an eye dropper until he started sucking that down and was able to move him to a bottle. He was jumping around the second day so I brought him back to momma. She was smelling him and saying nope, not my kid. Sooooo I took the little sweater she pulled off both her babies after they were born, rubbed in near mommas poop then rubbed Junior’s butt and down his back and she took him back. Ever since he’s been great. THANK YOU FOR UPDATING US 🥰 So happy they are making it!!!!

[@zaviahopethomas-woundedsou9848]

Watching this shows me when we build a house we will need a mud room with tile floor and a drain so I can keep little goats in it when needed. I appreciate all you teach us about goats!

[@brandeissports3436]

I’m so sorry for your loss. Little one was just adorable. Too bad she wasn’t healthy enough to make it. The 3, are as cute as can be.,

[@dianepeter3625]

Valiant popped into my head as a name for the boy, after Prince Valiant from the old comics. They're all really nice.

[@amandaclark1800]

I'm so happy to see them doing well. That little boy reminds me of Dexter, love him, he's going to get even flashier as he grows. I'd name him Vladimir "Vladi", and the girls Velma and Violet. But that's just me lol. Thanks for the update on these littles, they're just precious. ❤️

[@deefitzgerald2906]

Crystal you are the most incredible goat MOM 🌹……..The love that you have for your animals shows and those little babies are absolutely beautiful……

[@sheribristol2826]

Valkyrie would be an awesome name for that cute little buck! Great job keeping the three alive ♥️

[@foxglovepearls]

I ain’t gonna lie, but there is nothing cuter than a baby kitten. Until I found your channel and omg baby goats! Those three are beyond adorable!! Your life is blessed!

[@karenmartin7763]

Bless them so very cute. Sorry you lost the tiny baby she was very cute. 💖

[@HansenNeverDoneFarms]

Sorry for the loss of the little one but how amazing is this! What a difference a day makes!

[@donnastarpaw]

Poor littlest baby :( so sad but you did everything you could for her

[@gabbyrobinson9134]

Your love and dedication to every animal you care for is great to watch.

[@dianejohanson98]

Made me cry. That tiny baby was so sweet. She was moving around like she was going to make it. So sorry. She was beautiful. So sad. But glad the other 3 are doing well. Hope they keep improving.

[@judithdowell3164]

Today I revisited their birth and now this video and it brought back so many memories. Of course I couldn’t hold back the tears knowing what was going to happen. She really did try to fight for her life! And my dear, lady of the goats, you gave it your very best!!! Looking forward to the new birthing season and sweet little baby goats!

[@regtoney288]

So happy that they are doing good hopefully will continue

[@christinaoklaohio7926]

You have so much compassion and love and drive ..I admire you so much. ❤️

[@laurenkeon3267]

Beyond wonderful watching u with the 3 preemies. Incredible good news. I knew when you went ‘video silent’ about the preemies for those first days, you were struggling. Total sadness about littlest baby girl, but surviving and being sickly, and unable to be a real baby goat would have been so much worse. Sometimes nature just decides for us. So thank you for this precious video, loaded with smiles and good news for these 3. Such a treat seeing them outside, interested in their surroundings and nursing from the bottle. Overdose of cuteness. And as always, your complete delight in them and their progress is so heartwarming. cuteness!

[@virginiaalexander4999]

He should be named Victor because he is a survivor.

[@Uniquelyyours1]

Victor is a great name.

[@kathyw5701]

Agree completely VICTOR

[@virginiaalexander4999]

Will that get me a bar of Blue Cactus Dairy soap? Lol. Just kidding

[@zaviahopethomas-woundedsou9848]

The littlest name, Victory because she won against all the odds. The other female, Vivacious. The little buck, Vivid.

[@terrimalen710]

I thought the same names for the gorgeous babes!

[@beckyprebeck8787]

Ooo, Vivid is cute!🙃

[@richiecomia4559]

You have such a calming spirit. May God Bless You and Your Family. Love Love Your Channel

[@corrinnehoffman3248]

Valiant, Vanity and Venice. He is absolutely stunning! So was the smallest one that passed, may she RIP

[@jeannecooke4862]

So sad about your tiny loss, happy to see the others are making the life way together with you! Best wishes!

[@ArreisMorsCI]

Such beautiful babies!!! So tiny and precious, but at least they're doing well!!! So happy they have you to care for them.

[@shellyvang]

Venom should be the buck's name! I like Venus and Vanity for the doelings 😁

[@rebeccamcinroy6042]

That's great that three lived, good job

[@joycebarnett5813]

They look just wonderful. It is amazing how small they are and trying to run and jump around. Thanks for the update. Pray they stay strong and healthy

[@nataliem.6608]

Glad to see the 3 thriving! It was really sad to learn that the tiniest one passed, but you did your best. 💜

[@janetlambert371]

So precious….God works wonders! So sorry for your loss of the real tiny one but you have 3 cuties! Congratulations mom❤️

[@gypsyrosereadyfortheroad7305]

My condolences for the tiny goat. Thank you for taking such good care of the goats it’s making my shelter in place a bit more bearable. I live in a CA suburb near Silicon Valley and have never thought about goats. I happened upon a video and have been obsessed for days now. Best wishes to you and your family. Btw I love that your daughter doesn’t wear shoes.

[@salzaniclegend4129]

Glad to hear how well these three preemies are doing.

[@martharice4916]

Thank you for the update on these three babies. I was shocked to see the size difference in a previous video. So happy to see that they're beginning to eat well. Val and her babies are lucky to be in your herd where they will be cared for properly and flourish.

[@smilinwolfette1978]

Just catching up with Val’s updates. Aw poor sweetie. She sure gave it her best. She was a darling little thing but I kinda new she prob wasn’t gonna make it. Great the 3 others did though! You are Absolutley so amazing in caring for your animals!

[@judyreynolds305]

Those premature cuties are thriving now with your love and knowledge! Great job young lady! They should double their weight in 1 week I’m thinking!! Superman ,Wonder Woman, and Pixie!!

[@dianarussell6278]

I'm so sorry the runt didn't make it. I loved her markings. She was beautiful. The buckling is handsome too. I'm a sucker for the broken colors. I used to show small breed rabbits and I loved my broken colors especially the tricolored ones. They are like calico cats. I have a buckskin mini Nubian that has a little white on her. I plan to breed her to a white or blond buck to see if I can get kids with more white on them. This is my first time owning and breeding for goats. I'm nervous and excited about the upcoming breeding season. Here in Colorado it begins in October. I think I will breed in late October and early November. I can't wait much later than that because the bucks reside in the mountains and snow may interrupt our plans. We'll see.

[@Bsargentnoble1]

They are so fortunate to have you caring for them!

[@CynthiaSchoenbauer]

You show all the right mother instincts in this video. Now I understand why goat kids are called babies because of what you have to invest in them. I enjoyed this "family time"!

[@gilwood7530]

You are adorable ! One of the coolest goat gals ever . Awwww i had to check back to see about the fourth lil one ...She looked so weak and her cries were killing me ...RIP sweet little one . Sorry for your loss ... 3 Really healthy beautiful babies . We have two indoor goats and our munchkin "lil girl" was constipated this weekend(lol) ... but got us all in a fit ...Shes daddys lil girl . Shes fine now ... Someone gave away a big trampoline on craigslist ...so our buddies will be having fun...Thanks for your videos

[@katrinaassoumou6400]

Thank God they made it through. Thank you for sharing with us. Amen

[@jo-ellenscalone5962]

So sorry about your loss of the little girl.....so glad the other 3 are doing well......they are beautiful......Thank you for sharing! My name suggestion for the buck is VALOR.

[@haroldbrowne1708]

so sorry about the little one but great job keeping the other three going strong. You're right - they are cute as can be.

[@lucyhanke6534]

Voltron for the buckling. So many good suggestions for the does' names. Vina, Verita, Violet, Vonda, Vesta, Vonnie.... I learn so much from you. The little one you lost was unable to survive. You did everything you could have. It's impressive that you have saved the other three, considering that they're preemies. You rock!

[@jodyflores601]

Those little tikes are A D O R A B L E! They look lively and happy they are eating. I'm so sorry about your peanut.

[@christineuk8266]

🐐🐐Crystal you are such a dedicated surrogate mummy🐐🐐 Name's ~ Valour ~ Victoria ~ Victory ~ Valentine ~ Vicar Just LOVE them. Well done Val❣🐐❣❤🇬🇧

[@jill.arbogast6538]

Congratulations crystal that’s so hard when one is dead. You have done a wonderful job getting them to eat like you said “ there gonna make it”. They are beautiful. They look like little stuffed animals. I am very 👍 proud of you crystal. Thank you for sharing. Tell Derek, Daren and Emily I am very proud of all of you. Gave care God Bless 🙏🙏😷😷that little doe reminds me of a fawn deer of course without the spots.

[@jodrichy]

She was a pretty little goat. R.I.P baby girl💜.So glad her sisters and brother are doing well. Can't wait to see how they do in the big kid pen.

[@hanorabrennan8846]

Can you tell us what happens after they give birth? Are they fed and watered? Given treats? Minerals? Do you have an email posting list? I know you all work during the day under normal circumstances, but you could and should run workshops as it's all so natural to you. Please give them all HUGE hugs from the audience? Xxxx

[@amechelb]

What beautiful babies. Too bad that little one didn’t make it. She was so gorgeous. I’m glad you got those goats so they could get the best possible care.

[@cherryhill5654]

Your 🐐 goats are so tiny and beautiful little things. I love watching you on you tube.

[@taramiesler2401]

They are so Pretty! The little boy’s colors!!💙 & of course those baby girls! The one with the sweet tiny little dots reminds me of a fawn. So sad the teeny one didn’t make it but I felt that would’ve taken a miracle she was so tiny💕 So happy to see the rest are looking great🥰

[@morthanalittle]

Sorry you lost the fourth little girl, but anyone who’s involved in raising animals has met that heart ache. Speaking from my experiences anyway. So grateful those three you have here are making such phenomenal progress. Truly, so happy for you and them Crystal. I know they’re in the best of hands so their chances are great. So used to seeing the hefty kids your does usually deliver, it’s a dark contrast. Congratulations and my sympathies. Much love, Kelly 🙏🏼♥️ Ps they are gorgeous. Truly gorgeous.

[@tracycaple6313]

Happy to see them doing much better sad you lost the tiny one ,keep up you great work

[@bellmc3490]

Some names that start with V are Vanessa, Victoria, Vivian, Valentine, Valentino, Victor

[@OceanSwimmer]

Val will do SO MUCH better this coming breeding season, due to your Selenium maintenance program. Good job, Crystal.

[@bjrest]

Sooo cute. That lil buck looks like he has a skeleton costume on ❤️. You are so sweet to your animals Crystal

[@sstirling8816]

Names: Victor, Victoria and Valerie

[@WheatenBeauty1]

Victory seems appropriate. He's surviving against the odds and was born in covid times.

[@kareny4287]

Oh I like Victoria and Valerie.

[@daemonember]

but mom is Val. Which is generally short for Valerie.

[@kareny4287]

@@daemonember that is true... 👩‍🎤

[@joha7484]

thank you for being a great goat lover, God bless you and your family !!!

[@dianeleavitt1054]

When I was growing up I knew a family with all V names Val was the mom then Victoria Vanessa Victor were the kids and when you introduced Val great memories came flooding back so I think these would be awesome names for Vals babies. Hope you choose these names!

[@lisagay7271]

Great,video so,beautiful and very sweet so gorgeous and very priceless watching- them i love them all thank,you 🐆🐆🐅🐅😘🤣🙄😎😎😋🤩

[@thetwocountryhearts]

Vapor For the little one, Victory for the bigger female, Valentino for the male. You have a heart ❤️ for your goats, it’s not just business. Absolutely love your passion

[@southernbelle3995]

Crystal, thank you for sharing an update on Val's babies. They are too cute for words. I have such a hard time trying to imagine their size. The only goats I've ever seen are on here or something. I've never seen one in real life.Grew up on a farm with cows, pigs, and chickens, but no goats or sheep. V names are hard to think of. Maybe Vanna and Vesta for the girls, and Vano for the little boy. I'm so sorry you all lost the other little one. She just was too early.

[@kym7081]

Love your vlogs Crystal very informative... so sorry for the families loss. New to your vlogs just wanted to let you know you are amazing so compassionate, you and your family were born to do this! Stay safe everyone love from Ottawa Canada ❤️ Vinny • Violet • Lil Vertie

[@newdayfarm9463]

They’re gettin spunky now!!! That little girl was so cute! Poor baby. 😢

Thank you Jesus and you too Crystal. I just love you guy's. Your heart is big and you work so hard. Stay well and know you are always in my t hbk thoughts and prayers

[@margaretwiley8146]

So glad three made it.....they are so cute!!!! I love the way you work to help them survive!! I love animals like you. Wanted to be a vet but didn't pursue it. Dawn's baby girl.... Miss miracle a good name. Ditto for the buck .

[@wiwolfpupshlzam2281]

For the boy, Valour (,great courage in the face of danger ),,, one girl Victory and the other one Valiant ( showing courage or determination),,,,, just throwing in a few names,,,, they might've already been ,,,, but I didn't look ,,! Thanks for sharing their update,,,

[@kerriwhybrow4804]

with the addition of the buck and the bigger doe plus miss mabeline and dawns girl your going to have a awesome line up of babies for your show team this year hope the smaller doe can join to wishing you luck the babies look really good you have done wonders

[@sstirling8816]

Thanks for the update. :) I am so happy for you that Val's three kids are going to make it. All three are adorable. Sorry the fourth did not make it.

[@alexckelly1]

Val's bigger girl looks kinda like Koda. What little sweeties! Have a wonderful day! :)

[@suepeterson5675]

Good Morning to You All !! Bucks name - Viper. Bigger doe - Vandy. Little doe - Victory. Bless You All , Take Care & Be Safe. 👍👍❤️😊

[@hanorabrennan8846]

I fell, in a BIG way, for HOPE on WEAR but she was flown to Lumnah Acres and we trailed across the country to be in touch with her unique personality but it's all about building projects now and we might get a mere glance of Hope if we're lucky. They fulfil their obligation to WEAR but she ought to have remained in warmer climes with a less business oriented vlog. Heck, I miss that character and personality. I was the runt of the human litter I was born into but went on to make my mark on the world!!

[@leannemillar78]

The smaller of the girls has dots on her like Bambi ( the movie). Maybe she could be called Bambi, the boy call him Chance and the other girl call her hope! So glad to see the babies doing well xx sending love from Glasgow Scotland xx

[@michellepernula872]

Sweet!! That little black n white looks like a Dalmation !!! One looks like a Chipmunk. That one that passed had the most beautiful coat, lil sweet pea !! Darn ...

[@smellyolegoat150]

I'm so sad for the loss of the littlest girl. You and she fought so hard for her life. I'm so happy about the other three's amazing progress. I wouldn't keep them outside for at least a week, but you know much better than eye. I do think the sunshine and fresh air are important. However, I would be concerned about those cool Arizona nights and those premie lungs.

[@faithinhumanity3390]

Yay so happy for a update ! I have been praying they are well

[@CarisseH]

Your little Mr from a distance in his left side white pattern looks almost like a roster. They are all just so adorable. I am sorry about the sweet baby 😢

Hey. Crazy idea, but could you make a short video on the ones you want to retain? Or just a short showing them at the end of a video? I am sura some people would love that

Awesome! So happy to see them doing so well. Prince Valiant, Valkerie and Violet as some possible names.

[@healingsprings11]

Did someone splash some white paint on Flashy ? When you said you're keeping the boy, I cheered out loud ! Me thinks you ought to hang onto the other two as well.…? Great job Crystal and family for saving their lives.. So very sorry for the loss of the fourth baby. She'll come back to you as she isn't finished with living yet. Blessings names: Valentino, Vinny , Violette, Vera , Van, Vicky ,

[@evitarijnbeek8423]

Victor, Victoria and Vicky for being survivors 💜💙💜

[@megs7019]

Glad the other survived they have great coloring.... love the little buck colors. The tiny one cries broke my hart every time she made a noise.... Val is one of the new goats?

[@cowperson4763]

I just love Val's kids. So sad the tiny girl passed away. She was so sweet. I love that little buck. You say he's a new herd sire, thats great. I will be able to watch him grow up. Are you keeping Val's 2 girls too? I would call the little orange one Ginger. Call the buck kid Vulcan and the other girl Venus. The last clip showing the little girl thats in heaven now brought tears to my eyes. R.I.P baby girl.

[@MillaRaeDeshibeau]

Awwwww they have progressed so much!! Soon they will be on the lamb bar too. TLC is all they needed!!❤️❤️❤️ The youngest will be reborn once again cause she fought the best in her ability. You all did a great job and I pray these three will be wonderful members for the herd. V-names.... hmmmmmmm... Buckling- Vincent or Vince Doeling (larger of the two)- Vana or Venus Doeling (littler one of the two) Vivi or Vivian Great update can’t wait to see how they progress more in the days/weeks to come. 🤗🤗🤗

Goodness I just LOVE these babies. So happy you all have the ability to help them and form them into some beautiful goats 💕

[@DebC-rj3sg]

So sorry you lost that tiny baby she was so adorable.

[@meewe2197]

(A few name suggestions at end of comment) I'm sorry the youngest one didn't make it. She seemed sweet and I thought she fought hard to do what she could manage on her own (i.e. she did try to stand and walk). I'm super excited you get to welcome the other three to the herd; they'll make beautiful additions (I'm actually really looking forward to watching the buck grow up)! As for names, V is a bit difficult, but let's try! Buckling: Vittorio, Vikrum, Viking Wide doeling: Valencia, Valkyrie, Victoria Blue-eyed doeling: Viola, Violet, Vicki The 4th one's honorary name could be Valentine

[@CarlyCorrigan1]

The little black and white one should be called moo 😁. Hes like a little calf. Xx

[@jodieharmon7255]

Aww they’re all so beautiful 😍 I’m so happy to hear of how well they’re doing. Thank you so much for updating us on how they’re doing! I’ve been waiting and watching for it. Sad the little tiny female didn’t make it. She was just adorable too!
