If you’ve read this blog, then you know that I am a big proponent of having a close connection to the food that you eat. In fact, I spend most of my time trying to do just that. At the end of most days I have the dirt under my fingernails and scars on my hands to prove it.
So, it probably should come as no surprise that the animals at 1840 Farm are following suit. The goat kids are four weeks old today and made the decision to curl up and take a nap within the boundaries of their feed pan. I don’t know, sleeping on your dinner plate might be taking this a little too far, but it sure is cute.

Haha. They want to be sure to be first when the food comes again, I guess.
Wonderful picture!

They absolutely want to make sure that they don’t miss anything! I’m glad that you enjoyed the photo.
