Loving the herd life
I took a couple of the hens, but frankly I'm too tired and busy to upload them right now. 
The girls are doing fine. I watched them for a while and I seen movement in both lily and meg. Poor lily was flipping her head around everytime thinking one of the other goats was bugging her. haha. Angie's and Lily's udders are looking good. None of them are as full as I would expect, so we'll see what happens.
I'm still not convinced Amorette and Maleigha my nubians are bred. They are due in april and they are as skinny as rails.
Maybe I'm just used to seeing fatties. I hope they are bred. I'm so excited about their babies. They get picked on a lot, and are not very smart. They eat really slow and are picky, I don't know how to make them gain weight. Not sure about Celeste my only spotted kinder either. gr. I bred her 2 or 3 times last year and she didn't take. I assumed she took the last time, or at least thats what I'm hoping.
Ellie is due in may and she looks huge. She has always been a chunk, but she looks just as big or bigger than Angie who is due in less than a week. I bred her, and she would be due the same day as meg. But she came back into heat later and got rebred for may. She has no udder to speak of, so I think she is just fat.
I may just have to fork out the money for biotracking. I hate not knowing if they are bred.

So the lady we are getting the bred does from called yesterday and said they are bred and ready to be picked up anytime. 
I'm not really sure how great they are. She only had young pictures, but they come from some awesome stock, they are half sisters to my beautiful Lily, and honestly I bought him because of the buck they are bred to. I'm hoping for some nice babies.
I got them really cheap, so if I decide I don't like them I will keep the babies and sell them on. It's a win win. I can easily make my money back.
Sadly all my pens are full because of Jacob. So I'll either have to wait a little while, or do some rearranging. hmm

Here is some of the girls as they grazed today.
Tinkerbelle. She is beautiful, and HUGE. I love her big boned build, and nice topline. Sadly she isn't registered. :/ The Kinder Goat Breeders Association has no %'s so she can never make registered babies even though her babies would be 75%. I like to sell her babies for people who want the kinders on the cheaper budget.
Celeste is my only spotted kinder. She was pretty wild for the longest time, but she has finally calmed down and loves people just like everyone else.
Amorette one of my spotted nubs. Her momma was a Perm. Grand Champ. and a 5* milker. The breeder has won the IL state fair ADGA every year she has attended. Amorette was a quad from her best and favorite doe. Sadly the doe died about two weeks after kidding, and Amorette wouldn't take to a bottle. So she is a little behind in growth, and she is a little bunched in the body. She has some great genetics going on, and she is already beginning to catch up to normal size.
Sadly all three of these does are some of the ones I'm not sure are bred. :/ I really want babies from them. I think I'm going to get a preg test from bio tracking when I send the blood in for CAE testing as soon as I can come up with the money.

They are all sooo pretty. I want Kinders and most of all I want spotted Kinders. Must have them. Must have them. 
I posted on my journal about the breeders I am trying to get babies from. One is a doe from Covenant Ranch in Kansas and the other one is from the lady who has 2 of Jan (from NM) does, but she is not sure she wants to sell any this year. So hard to find any around here. I wish the Kinder association would let you do % registrations. I think Tinkerbelle is beautiful!

I seen your post I just hadn't been able to reply.
Hoping she has some girls for you! I'm sure you'll love them.
Fiance has already promised me he'd take me on he road trip to Jans whenever she is ready to sell me her buck that I want.
So I'll make sure to plan you in and try to get some goats out to you if your still wanting them. It will be probably a year or more.
It's kind of good they don't do %'s in a way. It keeps the goats true to the breed, and makes people less likely to crossbred I guess. They have the name trademarked, so I don't believe you will ever be able to register kinders anywhere else.

Thanks! I'm proud of my babies. Although you can always improve a herd. Mine are happy, healthy, adorable, friendly, and they provide milk, meat, and fun. Just what I want in a goat. Couldn't be happier with them.
