88% Javelin was bred to Rush for purebred kids. She kidded 12 days early :cry: , both kids (trad buck and trad doe) were dead by the time i got home from errands, she'd been checked on 2 hours earlier. the kids were developed, but I'm guessing their lungs werent ready, really killing me here... long awaited kids here.. :sigh: gosh they are so beautiful, what a shame. they were born outside, it's 38 now. in a pile of straw. my kidding shed just got finished today and i was planning on moving them in. but i got 1/2 a gallon of colostrum in the freezer, the doe is fine and passed her placenta just now, she was a FF 2 year old.
yeah, i had been waiting 2 YEARS for these guys. weird question, but do you want pics? The buckling has interesting markings. sorry if i offend anyone
Awww, what a huge bummer! Especially because you waited so long for these kids. Such a shame. I am so sorry. (((Hugs))) Tracy
I am sorry Katrina, I hope the rest of your kiddings go better......I would kinda like to see the pics.
I am so very sorry Katrina I am glad your doe is okay. I wonder what would have made her go into labor so early? I hope the rest of your kidding season goes smoothly.
I'm so sorry for the loss Katrina. Hope your next one goes more smooth. I wouldn't mind seeing photos either.
I'll get photos tomorrow, theyre not going anywhere on a good note I have a ton of colostrum and kidding barn is done being painted and theres javelin and angel in there resting.
Im so sorry, although I have not had to go through losing any at birth yet of the 7 kids we have had born since nov we have had 2 die, and I had to put one down on Sat due to it getting stepped on, you have my sympathy, and my prayers Here is to a better rest of the kidding season for all of us. and no i would not mind seeing the pics.
Im so sorry for your loss. I know when you wait for certain kids and then somthing goes wrong it really stinks. I hope the rest of your kidding season goes great.
Oh no...I am so very sorry Katrina... that is so devastating.... my heart goes out to you and your Doe.....it breaks my heart.... knowing... that you have waited for so long... to get Rush's kids..... and you don't have many Does bred to him..... Again I am sorry and I pray that all the rest kid on time and have very happy and healthy kids..... ray:
Dang! I know, you really wait on a cross that you just KNOW will be great kids and then something happens! The Vet who came out to check on one of my Preg. Tox. does told me that at 10 days thier lungs were not developed yet, but he didnt say when they would be. Sorry for your loss.
