2020 Kidding Tally--count

Beautiful Babies!

Bucklings =44
Doelings =41

 

These were on time! Yay! A buck and a doe. Doeling Buckling

This idiot also grabbed our rejected kid from another doe (thinking she was done with the single, so now she's taken 3. Her udder looks great though, so we'll play it by ear. (Yes, this girl is a saint).

Bucks: 45
Does: 42

 

The whole family.

 

Awwww...shes such a good mama! They are all beautiful!

 

Her mother only threw solid white kids, regardless of what she was bred to. My jaw dropped when those 2 hit the ground!

 

Our winter kidding is done -

6 does bred = 2 singles, 3 twins, 1 triplet (first time we've ever had more than 1 single! I'm okay with that they are does lol)

6 does (1 triplet sold as a bottle baby)
5 bucks

 

Well those five early birds kept us busy until our first official due date. Square Dancer kicked us off Jan 9th with 2 bucks, followed by Stella, our belted doe, Jan 12th with 2 more bucks. Sissy finally came in with a doe and Nike 2 does on Jan 15th. We were very busy Jan 16th as What a Lady birthed a buck and a doe, Bobbie birthed a buck and a doe, I Spy Dapples birthed a buck and two does, and Lacy birthed a doe. One the 17th Beege popped out a doe and Roxy popped out a buck and a doe. Zoey changed things up with 2 bucks on the 20th. Then we were able to catch our breath for a moment until the 27th Favorite Cover Model was blessed with triplets- 1 buck & 2 does. Now with nine pregnant goats left I wouldn't mind another busy day of four of them kidding out together! Can you tell which pen is the warmest? So we are personally tied 14 to 14. (this post: bucks 11, does 12)


Bucks: 61
Does: 60

 

Finished with winter kids here! 4 sets of twins (3 of which were first timers!)

The dark brown is a buckling and the dapple is a doeling.
We've gotten a rainbow this year! Changing up our program seems to have paid off in the color department.
