Ok well we came home from town and found that MIddy kidded riplets! but all boys Anyways today is only her 145 day and we weren't expecting her to kid much less have triplets. Anyways here they are. 2 of them are solid black like mom and 1 is colored just like dad. I don't think any of them hae white on them. This man was the biggest and weighs 4.13 lbs. He is polled and has blue eyes just like dad. This guy is the second biggest and he is 4.9 lbs. He is polled and has blue eyes als. The last guy is the smallest an dhe is 4.8 lbs. He is horned with brown eyes just like mom. They are so cute but bummer they are all boys.
Congrats!!!! Even though unexpected - what a blessing! Give them all kisses for me and don't forget treats for mom!!!
Mom has had her treats. She has had her molasses water, protein block, and chaffee hay. She loves her boys. How long should I give her to pass all of the after birth? We love them even though they are boys. You can see mom and dad at http://www.titanfarmsfaintinggoats.com Midnight is the mom (doe page) and Yankee is the dad (buck page).
What a nice looking herd you have! To be honest, I am not sure on the after birth, since I have not had babies born yet. Others will definately be able to tell you though. But I wouldn't think that it would be to long after birthing.
Congratulations!!!! I know the feeling, I got twin blue-eyed polled boys from Nimue! Where's the girls??? LOL
Congratulations!! What a surprise....they are all such cuties. I'd give her a minimum of 8-9 hours, though most will pass it after an hour or so, and unless you are watching her constantly she'll pass it and eat it. (instinct) And you won't know wether she did or not. Mine usually have it expelled within the first hour after birth.
All I can say is AWWW - If I'm lucky enough to have any babies next year *laughs* they'll probably all be boys. LOL
She passed it. It took an hour or so after we found her. We really love our herd and these little guys are welcomed in it. Now they just need some girl cousins. :wink:
oh they are so cute. my does usually pass the after birth with in 3 to 4 hours but it can take some as long as 8 or 9. the main thing is when you see it hanging there DO NOT PULL IT it will fall out on its own. a lot of times the babies nursing will help expell it to.
Congratulations! They look great :drool: :clap: :stars: :leap: :dance: (Okay, enough of those, I know lol)
There are new dry pics at http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v315/titanfarms/ there will be more later today. None of them have a speck of white on them (that is a piece of shavings in the pic). They are just so sweet. Now if our over due doe will kid. :? :roll:
Congratulations. They are a great surprise. Those are good size babies for triplets, and they are adorable.
