Here I thought the only doe I bred for this early in the year hadn't settled...well...went out to feed this morning and noticed a little bundle of cuteness standing under her! She had a single buckling...looks to of had him just fine on her own and is being a great mom! She's a first freshener...has a very small udder...so much I hadn't even noticed it under all her winter fluff! But the buckling is up...looks nice and chubby and is strong and healthy so i'm happy. Oh and this is the first kid from one of my bucks... Rockstar. I'm including pics of the doe and sire of the buckling. I'll get pics of the little guy later today! :dance:
Yippee! I love surprises like that! (I hope I get a similar one in a couple of weeks.) He's a very handsome buckaroo!
Thanks guys! Also...if anyone is interested...this little guy will be available as a wether in 8-10 weeks.
Hmmm, now i'm wondering about my FF's that don't look prego - their moms are huge, but all of them look slim and trim (with fluffy coats of course) Earliest possible due dates are the end of March, so we'll see. Your baby is adorable, i could use a few surprises like that too
Thanks everyone! PznIvyFarm...Yeah...I really didn't think she took! She didn't look unusually wide...udder didn't really show...pooch wasn't unusually puffy...but all that time she was actually pregnant! :shocked: These goats can really surprise you sometimes! :laugh:
