Welcome. We do the milk for calfs and the two us thing, but we use goats instead. For us, the weed eater goats work a little better, and we will start pasture rotation with them ahead of horses a little later this spring (someone -ME- has to build a milking trailer first).

Sally, Semi, Sindy, and Slinky the Saanens waiting to be milked.

between hips just in front of tail (Tail head / Tail base), fairly deep. Normally feel like two little pencils.

Chinchilla lion head cross? Short ears.

Congrats! Are these part of your sig line inventory?

Tail ligaments disappearing is a usually good sign of "soon now".

OK, So we have 18 babies this year (We have lost 5 :( ). We decided to do a creep feeder this year to improve baby goat growth, but not Mommy Goat width. We are classically cheap. Here is our snowfence & pine board creep feeder. (also our barrel 1/3rds feed & water holders)

Congrats! :clap

New Holland (giggle - I made a farm pun on a farm pun)

Day old baby girl. No name yet. She is a mutt (Kiko/Savannah/Boer cross).

The 'thing' she is stuck in is our round bale hay feeder. We opened the gate to make it easier to get her out, Normally its boards all the way around :)

Not mine, and I can't lay claim. If I could figure out how to get to my old 'my page', I would have stuck it there.

We mostly have bigger goats (Boers, Saanens, Alpines, and crosses). She's the only shorty. When she drops, they are sooo small compared to others. I guess we dont handle them the way we should.

Not 'your bad'. I didn't say, so you didn't know. No Bad, No fail. We are guessing around 5, but she is our only Nigerian dwarf, so we may be way off.

We've got dogs, but we have fences, and multiple fields. So they were not there. She looks wider this year than last, and I don't know her age. She might be doing that 'multiple babies till death' thing. I hope not.

Thanks, we are hoping so too. She had her trips last year with no problem, but we lost two to hawks (they were soooooo small).

No clue. Pasture bred. She had triplets last year.

Meet Choco-Latte, a nigerian drawf. Just a tad pregnant.

Great minds

Thank you all for the sympathy. We certainly were not expecting it at 5 days old. 1 or 2 days maybe, but not 5. She was a strong, happy, healthy girl,
