Which comes first the Doe or the Babies?

[Christie Noah McGinnis]

I will be able and ready to get my very first ever goats at the beginning of the year when I retire.  The way I have it set up now I will be getting a doeling and a buckling at the end of March / First of April.  And an adult Doe a few months later after she weans her babies.  

 

Here is my thought process I would like a little bit of time to bond with and adjust to the kids before bring an adult into the mix.  What do ya'll think?  Could I bring an adult home first?  I am afraid she would be lonely until the kids come.

I like your current plan. You're right that a single goat would be lonely.
