Jennifer Carlyle is expecting new additions to her family in spring 2017. The mother of two children and five goats is preparing for a whole new set of kids as her Nigerian dwarf dairy goats are pregnant with their first group of offspring. Carlyle brought home her first Nigerian dwarf goat six months ago to start her own herd after years of raising horses and chickens.
