Goat Whisperer's & SBC's kidding thread: kidding storm

I'm feeling kinda proud I got it. We read the book this Winter.

Glad to hear you are reading some worthwhile literature @Poka_Doodle!

Lol. It seems our teacher might be found of stuff from a bit ago.

I was trying to get a few pics of the sizes of goats...

LOL It just turned out to be a BLOOPER PHOTO SHOOT!

Ruthie (Nigerian was a real PITB) She was running all over and when we brought her to the rail she was all nervous so she starts squatting down... which made her rear legs look stupid... so NOT a great representation.... then Trouble was irritated and was all arched up in the back.... Ruby was standing sideways.... UGH.

We were trying to get the Standard, Miniature, and Dwarf all lined up.

Didn't work.
A few days ago I tried to get udder shots.... (different day)
DEEP SIGH.
At least I got Ruby... and Cici...
I also got some after milk out shots.

I really like how most of our girls milk out real well... you want it like a glove.

Cici and Zephyr have big hand milking teats. They are great for hand milking. If they had dam raised I don't think they would have gotten so big. I would have liked them a little smaller. Cici was dam raising but her kid only ate off one side so she is a little off.

Dwarf, Mini-Mancha, & Standard


Ruby - overnight fill


Cici- FF to a single mini- overnight fill


Milked out


Zephyr- milk out pic... fill pics didn't come out


Millie and her Baby!


Trouble always takes top spot.

Nice pictures! Looks you have a bottom feeder goat

Nice

Looking good!

My question is: What happened to the legs on the goat under the feeder in the last pic ???? She looks like she's 'growing' right out of the ground!

That's another one of my fatty girls! She's a ND and let we tell you, you would never think she had quints

She is the lowest on the pecking order, so she dives under the feeder, lays down and enjoys the goodies

She might be low ranking - but she's pretty darn smart, lol!
