Beautiful!
Your daughter's smile is so filled with joy and hope.

Close ups of the top of the head will help for the polling.

Thank you- I view every day with my daughter as a gift and we couldn't be happier that she was able to have these amazing animals as part of her life. You can follow her journey on this site if you'd like....

oh...one more question... the mom is polled...can you tell from the pics if the boys are too??

One way you can tell is by looking carefully for swirled fur where horns would grow. If there are, then that kid will grow horns. Usually when my polled doe kids, her polled kids' fur goes straight over the buds just as if nothing was going to grow out. Also, what I do a day after a kid is born, is feel their buds each day. Usually, with kids that are going to have horns, their buds will start to get pointy and grow, of course! With polled kids, the buds feel rounded out; feeling your polled doe's might help you figure it out . It can be difficult to tell sometimes, but once you get the hang of it, you won't forget!

Here is an example of one of my polled kids. See how her fur goes straight up over the buds? You don't see any swirls which would likely indicate horns will be growing. I circled where her bud is in the second photo and pointed how the fur goes straight. : ) A side angle in the third photo.


Here is my polled kid's sister, which would've had horns. See how there's a swirl ? I pointed to it in the right photo. : )



Also, another horned kid. Her swirls were much easier to see! You can also see very easily that the little doe in the middle has swirly fur right where the horns would've grown had she not been disbudded.


Hope that helps you! : )

Oh dear, how did I forget?? Congrats on the healthy kids!! They are adorable. I hope you and your daughter get to see Mable kid. One thing that will help you know when she's close is to check her ligaments. Once they are completely gone and you can get your fingers around her tailhead, she will be kidding within 24 hours. : )
