Being the smallest one in the group is never easy, and one tiny goat named Maggie is learning that the hard way.
Maggie was born the smallest of four baby goats, and her mother reportedly did not take to her because of her tiny size.
That’s when Maggie’s human family stepped in.
They began bottle-feeding the little goat and giving her the extra care and attention she needed to grow stronger. Before long, Maggie had become part of the household, soaking up plenty of love while she got big enough to return to the barnyard.
Now that she’s stronger, Maggie is starting to spend more time around the other young goats.
But fitting in has not been easy.
In a TikTok video shared by @juleshomestead, Maggie can be seen wandering around the pen while the other goats mingle nearby. The tiny newcomer appears unsure of where she belongs, making the moment both adorable and a little heartbreaking.

After being raised so closely by humans, Maggie may simply need more time to get comfortable around goats her own age.
For now, she’s still searching for her place in the herd, but with a little patience, her family is hopeful she’ll soon find some barnyard buddies of her own.
