VIDEO: New Kids on the Block ... Help the Stamford Museum and Nature Center Name The Baby Goats
Eight goats and 11 lambs have been born so far this spring at the center's Heckscher Farm and the staff needs help in naming them.
Put on your baby-naming thinking caps and help out the folks at the Stamford Museum & Nature Center’s Heckscher Farm.
The center said on its Facebook page, “With close to 20 babies born on Heckscher Farm this spring, we’re running out of names! Please help us name our twin kids (baby goats) – a boy and a girl – born this past Wednesday.”
Twin kids — a boy and a girl — were born April 29 to mama goat Delilah. So far, the farm’s newborn tally is eight kids and 11 lambs. And a few more are expected. [A video of Delilah’s kids can be viewed below.]
