I have heard that too, @misfitmorgan . I think it depends on what part of the world you live in. :)

You ND's may not be PB. Lots of crosses that are claimed to be PB.

She is a registered ND so i hope she is lol. i dont have her papers but i saw them and they match her tattoo, the previous owner wanted another $75 for papers and i couldnt ever see needing them so i passed.

Thank you so much!! My doe Silly is getting so big & her udder is filling up! I've been questioning whether my other doe, Charlotte (the black & white one), is bred or not but she seems to be getting a little rounder & she's developing an udder! So I'm hoping she is bred too!

Another question: should I be giving a CDT vaccine to them? I read that does should get a booster about a month before they kid but I'm not sure of their due dates. Can I just go ahead & give them both the vaccine now? Also, should I give them a pneumonia vaccine? The rest of my herd is due for their vaccines now so I wanted to get everyone on the same schedule.

i do not give pneumonia vaccines to any of my animals so i have no idea on that. CDT should be 30 days before i learned not to long ago and the wonderful people here said go ahead and give it to the prego does...and hope i was roughly 4 weeks out still. So i did and didnt notice any negative side effects. From what i understand the CDT is given a month ahead so the antibodies go into moms milk.

Update! My girls had their babies! Silly had twin bucklings, Teddy & Graham. Charlotte had one little blue eyed doeling that looks just like her. I got to be present for both births & they went very smoothly & everyone is healthy. Huge relief!
