Thanks! :D the hubby wants to keep him. The plan was supposed to be sell or eat! So who is the bigger goat addict? Lol we will see after the other three have thier kids.
On a good note, Honeysuckle has goo! That is progress. :celebrate I wouldn't have noticed it except she swung her tail and a big string followed it.
More waiting for other signs...

Hercules is the only buck we have. So very much the father.
Hubby decided to call him Red, after the Red Pine.

The doeling has wattles like dad but looks exactly like mom

The buckling doesn't have anything but the baby cuteness factor and is quiet compared to his sister and half brother.

Thistle is being a great mom. I thought for sure she would have one. What a surprise! I also thought honeysuckle would go first!
Honeysuckle and Ixia are locked in the kidding pens because they look so close. :fl hope we have babies in the morning.

Here are some name suggestions for you. I'm going off a Scottish theme. I think I remember you mentioning that your bucks name came from a scottish tree.
Doeling: Bluebell (Bella for short), Primrose(Rose for short), Myrtle, Dahlia, Camelia, Petunia, Begonia
Buckling: Aspen, Rowan, Birch, Blackthorn (going off moms name it is a tree that forms a prickly bush)

I hadn't even begun to think of names yet! Lol
But I do like primrose.
Dahlia is the name of one of our alpines so I do like that one. :D
The Hercules Club has other names it is normally called but I can't remember them right now. I think it is an oak?
