Busty is doing pretty good....we still need to ‘help out’. Is it possible for a doe to just make too much milk? They will snack a bit when we put them on, but, the reason we’ve done it twice,is because her udder is just sooo big! And, it looks like, when I watch her then, that she does push them away. So, I’m pretty sure they are nursing on their own, because they are full of spunk, and they are not terribly hungry when we have helped them twice since the issue. But she still fills up like a giant balloon! Is that just typical of her type? She is not full blood ND...she is probably 1/2 ‘planer’ is what I was tiold based on her airplane ears. I just love them.... But, I have another doe, her kid is about a month Or so, we just bought her before ours were all born. They are full ND...her udder is not big at all and she is a fat kid!! . perhaps I’m just so new I have no clue what to expect?
