Thanks everyone. The vet was great. He gave me a powdered remidy for scours to mix in with the goats milk and he told me about a place only 20 minutes away where I could buy enough fresh goats milk to feed these guys. He gave them both some fluids under the skin to help rehydrate them. They seem much better already. I've been to get the milk and they've had their first meal of it already. They wag their little tails when they eat. So sweet.

I've been calling the little gold one Sol (sun) and the one with the white crescent on her forehead Luna (moon). We'll see if those stick.

I have another doe, coral, due to kid any day now. The vet is going to come back out to check on her after to be certain everything is okay. I don't want to lose another one.

Sol and luna are lovely names

Good luck with the next mum-to-be. I hope it goes well. Don't forget to post more pics of the new arrivals
