I would bring in inside if it is going to be really cold. At 5 days you could probably contain it pretty easily in a large box but it needs company. I slept in the winter in the barn with my baby when it's brother died. 2 weeks in the cold, they do not like to be alone.

I love my goats with a passion, they are one of the most wonderful creatures I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.
