Hillside boer goats 20-21 kidding

Today was another cold snowy day, only about a dusting of snow with a little ice and around 15 degree all day. I was getting a little stir crazy in the house so I decided to run through a few does a trim hooves. I did 8 does by myself and decided I was tried lol. I didn’t get to 3 bred does. They are just so heavy with kids and due on the 2nd, I didn’t want to stress them too much. I think I’ll try to get to my yearlings tomorrow, maybe...

This is Spots, she is due on Valentine’s Day. I wasn’t going to do her today since she has been very uncomfortable, with some mucus but she jumped right on the the stand, so why not!

 

Oh yes belly is nice and soft!
previous owners said she has always had triplets so I think she’s just full of babies, or two big ones.

 

And just on time!
My second round of kidding has begun!
I checked the does at 3 and nothing was happening, I got up at 5 and Flex and twin doe kids on the ground! They were dry, feed and she cleaned! Better pictures coming soon! Flex is very protective of her babies and I don’t enjoy getting bit

 

Thanks everyone!!
They are only a few hours old but I’m loving them already!! Twin fullblood, dapple headed girls is a definite win in my books!

 

Well Star kidded late last night two beautiful purebred (97%) boys! Of course is was -11 below and I was up all night trying to keep them warm and tummies full. The red paint is doing great he’s out with mom but are little dapple isn’t doing so hot. I can’t keep him warm. He’s currently in the house under a hairdryer. I’m hoping he perks up soon. It’s only supposed to be a high of 4 today! Ugh!!

 

Thanks everyone! The dapple is doing great! He stayed with my mother in law for the day since I had to work. I took him back to his mother tonight, she’s a little unsure but she is letting him nurse.

 

I have truly been blessed with girls this year!! Two more born today!! Opal gave me two black dapple girls. The little one with the bottle is tiny and Opal doesn’t care for her so she will get to stay in the house with use as a bottle baby. The dapple boy from yesterday will join her as his mother doesn’t like him.
9 girls and 3 boys born here! Two more does to go!
