Lilly kidded, single boy. He is solid white like his momma. She had him out in the field but got him into the barn on her own. It is about 150 yards, I am very pleased with her.

-Straw- Yes, Bullet has wattles. I just adore wattles.

We have 34 kids in the barn right now and we sold 3 last Saturday. 15 does to go.......

Congrats! When is Nissan due?
From 2/7/13
Nissan kidded. A boy and a girl. The boy is white with maybe a little bit of tan. The girl is light brown with some white swirls. She is very cute and much smaller than the boy. They were up and walking when I got home. She went right into the kidding stall, kicked everyone else out and had them there.

We had a little trouble last night. Apparently these kids are more Forrest Gump than Sheldon Cooper. They stood there screaming for food but made no effort to find the teat. I led them to it, put it in thier mouths, they ate but then went back to screaming with no effort to find the teat. So I milked out almost 2 cups and gave them each some. They were quite happy then so I went to bed. This morning they were quiet, not full bellies but not empty and I saw each of them nurse at least once. I tried to milk some more out of Nissan just in case but she didn't have much. So either that huge udder isn't producing much milk or they were snacking all night.

She kidded boy-girl twins on 2-7. They are doing well after a slow start. The girl is pretty one of the pair, go figure.

Ragin River 147 kidded yesterday. Boy-Girl twins. Up, dry and nursing when I got home. I was in a hurry becasue I had a customer comign to get chickens and I wanted to clean up the mess before he got there. So I didn't do a thourough check on the goats. All looked great so I went about my business. The customer went to his truck to get a cage and I went to help out hubby who was filling the hay rack. He was watching this cute little baby climb up into the rack. Hubby looked at me and said "isn't that one a little small?" I looked and said "who's is that- WAIT that one has no tag!" So I looked in the stall and there was another one nursing on Ragin River 147, who did not have kids when I had left that mroning.

So healthy Boy-Girl twins, up, dry and getting into trouble before I even realized they had been born. I love it when it works out like that.
