A Virginia goat cheese farm that sought volunteers to snuggle their baby goats said Tuesday it had received too many applicants for the job.

The Caromont Farm in Esmont, Virginia, began askinglast week for volunteers who are willing “to assist in bottle feeding infant goats, keeping the herd warm and dry, and maintaining cleanliness of the equipment and pens.”

The farm expects that around 90 baby goats, or kids, will be born by mid-February, WVIR-TV reported.

Some of the kids even wear little sweaters to keep them warm.

The farm’s request for baby goat snuggler volunteers piqued quite a bit of interest.

By Tuesday afternoon, the farm had reached its capacity for baby goat snugglers this winter.

Better luck next year to all you baby goat snugglers!
