Thank you.
If you have all horned leave him horned if you are keeping him. Are you sure he is blind? You could talk with your vet but maybe try A,D,E, B-12 vitamin gel. Vitamin A is associated with eye issues and thiamine/B vitamins as well. You should have him seen. Some people love taking care of special needs animals. List him as special needs and an adoption fee of a low price of ... LOL
It made me sooooo happy! Pretty sure they are keeping this guy! 
His left eye is blue. I was just wondering about the horns being dangerous when he can't see.
I agree I plan for months and go back and forth and it's neat to try to see what's going to happen with each individual breeding. I spend lots of time on adga genetics. I'm always asking others breeders to show their pictures and some of them cannot even take any pictures they have gotten to business likeyeah, goats seem to discriminate by ear type.
So, today Prynne is in the kidding stall!!!!!!!
Another really exciting kidding for us. Again for minis. GW thought it wise to breed two does closely related to Kiegh in case one didn't give us a buck. Smart girl that GW!
I love kidding season. I love lining up the does/bucks.
I don't know- guess I still get like a little kid with getting so excited. I know not everything works out the way I hope but stilll.... it is fun and exciting. I do wonder sometimes, I rarely see people get excited about a line up.
Shoot, I get excited about other people's line ups.
I'm on a few FB groups and geesh, it's like everyone is in competition instead of being happy for each other.
I never want to lose my joy over goats.
Nice udder.. I need some of that rear udder arch pleaseIf you have all horned leave him horned if you are keeping him. Are you sure he is blind?

If he can see enough to get around etc.. why not.
On another note.
This is kinda special. I know this is our kidding thread and maybe I should put it in journals but we sold a doe last year (late fall), she was sold bred and after bloodtest confirmed she went to her new home. Her person is a 7 year old little girl that has goats but wanted her OWN lamancha. We met them at the shows. Jane Eyre was bred to Black Tie Affair. We were so hoping Jane would give them a doe. We got the call and Jane had two bucks. One was huge. I think they were 7.5# and 10 or 11#. The little girl loves her boys! Anyway they have had lots of kids born over the past few weeks. I got a few pics tonight, and this one pic really stood out!
I asked who is that kid out of,WOW! Beautiful.
I got a message back... it was Jane Eyre/Black Tie Affairs buck kid!

We also got some pics of a Nigerian Doeling that went to her new home today! She is spoiled already and was on the couch!
We will get to see this doe at some shows!
And lastly Charlotte- that kidded on the 15th... she is increasing in production and we are loving her 2F udder. Her skin continues to stretch.
Really happy with it so far.

: celebrateAll night glued to the cameras. Worried... almost went out at 4am to do a sweep...
I am so tired. Need sleep.
Prynne had twin bucks! GW's plan of ensuring we got a buck was a good one but geesh, Prynne, 1 doe would have been nice.
Prynne is blaming Kiegh.
Here are the two boys.
F-1 50/50% Miniature Lamanchas
These boys are big! They each took 10oz.

Unfortunately with kids you better wait a while make sure they all make it.
This is why I am just working on so many separate lines for the minis. It is really hard to find minis with a good high escutcheon.Nice udder.. I need some of that rear udder arch please
I guess you are just blessed and should count your blessings. Esther had a backside like that, and she was disbudded by a vet who raises goats and has done hundreds. And I lost her to it. I just ment you never know.We wait til a kid is disbudded first before letting them leave. Bottle babies only go to those that know how.
If a kid is born healthy there is no reason it should die unless it is an accidental death. We have never had any kid that left our farm die or get sick. We have had a kid that after anesthesia (when we use to have them sedated for disbudding) was never right ... we had him euthanized and necropsied. Nothing was ever found, just weird. I do think we are very picky though and our clients are awesome and very conscientious.
I will want to pick soon though because I love the boys and have a bad habit of keeping them. We also have people on a waiting list. I will probably hold out til Bingo and Strawberry's kids are born ( they are both minis) and may just sell a mini herd.

I like to say I want that escutcheon kissin' that vulva!
