They would jump up on my knees when I went into their pen, then sit on my lap. Amazing how affectionate they were.<br /><br />One day the tan one looked under the weather. The next, we found her laying dead in the yard. Still have no idea what got her, but that's life. Animals are a gift and a heartache.
