    This is just a happy story I wanted to leave here because I'm just feeling so blessed. Our last ND doe to kid this year dropped quads and three were born alive. Two bucklings looked good but the little doe that was still alive was the smallest goat I've ever seen. I could barely believe she was...

She weighs 46lb and is actually a few inches taller...

    So we got two baby nigerian dwarf goat bucks, they are supposed to both be 4 months old but I think that our little white one is quite a bit younger. He's very small compared to our black one, Popcorn. He looked for his mama for about a week when he got here, it was very sad. He has a smaller...

    This morning I found one of my doelings dead. Her eyelids, super pale, no color, whatsoever. I dewormed my herd because they all seemed to have slightly low FAMANCHA score. I dewormed with cydectin, safeguard, and I did a 5 day Corid treatment. They all seem to be doing well, but I still...

I also read that it can be really difficult to get a dam raised baby to take a bottle. I was planning to get them...
