Darn cold is no good for baby goats

Thought about milking Vera and bringing the kids in; decided to just bring the kids in about 9:00 pm ... was suppose to be -16 last night .. good god!
 
Then -22 Sunday night and -18 Monday night .. what the frick!!
And January has just started.
 
Got the initial straw and goat poop cleaned out of the basement, but now am wondering if I should bring Vera and the kids inside again.
Those kids are big enough to get into plenty of trouble now ... but frozen babies is a lousy alternative.
I am no longer amused!
 
Have frozen chickens for sale ... May soon have frozen chickens in the barn, as well.

    After 25 years as a research scientist, editor, product and project manager in the biotech industry, I'm trying my hand at farming. Born and raised city kid ... rarely even visited farms, but my parents fostered a strong connection to nature, gardens, and from-scratch cooking and baking. I read books, talk to people, go to seminars and classes .. nothing here does what people say it's suppose to .. so everyday I find myself trying to figure out how to handle the latest unanticipated dilemma. Here I'll share the adventures and anticipate your advice.
