    They're so sweet. And what fine names. Are they as inseparable as they look?

    Cute girls. Do they seem to know they are twins?

    They are joined at the hip.. I will have one lost baby when one of them dies..They are inseperable..Iris is very dominant. bossy, she eats first , and really pushes Marigold around...They each take after a parent.. Their mama (Prizzy) and papa (Marcus)..Mama was soooo mean, she butted and knocked me down all the time, chased all the chickens, geese, dogs, cats, etc..and papa was the sweetest thing ever.. So loving...Most loving you'd get from Prizzy was when I was brushing her coat.. This she loved, until you stopped and that just made her even more mad, lol..

    What personalities you are discribing! I haven't had goats long enough to really know their lifespans. My oldest goats are about 5 years ..
