Let me know how things go. My doe would not let me touch her when we bought her. 30 days later when she was ready to kid she wanted me in the shed with her. But at the time I did not know they shouldn't be moved in the last trimester and the twins did not survive. In fact the buck died in...

They love sweet feed. It also helps give a little more weight. It looks like she could use some. Also a couple tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a gallon of water, helps with worms. Free choice baking soda helps with acid in their rumen to keep away bloat especially with fresh spring pasture...

The big ears could also be part kiko or boer. I used to some kiko and kiko/Boer mixes. She reminds me a little of my ginger. I will post a pic of her later. What are you feeding them?

This is my buck. He is at least 1/2 pygmy. I don't trim him. He is 4 years next month. So far out of him, I have gotten 4 doe's and 1 buck in three years. I am still waiting on 1 kid.

He looks a lot like my buck except mine has much bigger horns but he is 4years old next month. The man I got my buck and first doe from said they were Mini Silky Fainting goats but it turns out the doe was a pygmy. The buck was the son of the doe's sister so he is at least 1/2 pygmy. I don' know...

I used a measuring tape as well. Could you post pics of your bucks as well?

Congrats on baby boys

:lol:. Most of the others will probably be dosing too! Some preachers seem to like to drag it out.

Any pics of your boy? What is he?

Did they tell you what breed she was?

Have you tried holding a bowl of feed for her to eat? It takes time. You could start by placing the bowl on the ground beside you and acting like you are not paying attention to her. I bought a pygmy doe that was due 30-45 days after I bought her. Does she look like she has an udder? Have you...

Great dogs. Amazing how they protected the newborn. What are they?

My buck is 4 days old and not as active as his sister.

My doe's mother was a pygmy I believe. She had shorter legs. I'm not sure about my buck. He is 20 in.

How tall are your does? I am trying to figure out if mine are pygmy/Iberian crosses. One of my girls had twins on Feb 28. At 4 days old they weighed 3.4 and 3.11 lbs. My buck is 20 in tall. My doe's mother was a pygmy I believe. I think my buck is either Nigerian or Nigerian/pygmy.

At 4 days old my doe weighs 3.4 lbs and the buck weighs 3.11 lbs and they feel much heavier than they did at birth. But they are growing.

Mine are both smaller than small cats. I am going to weigh them today.

They have grown so much. Mine are three days old. Their mama worries cause they want to sleep most of the time. When yours were born, how big were they compared to a milk jug? Mine are so tiny. I want to weigh them. I think I might use a small plastic bag because I have a hand held fish scale.

I am sorry to hear you had to lose your dog. Making that kind of decision is extremely hard but you also had to think of your own children as well. Plus you could have been sued if she did bite someone.

Yeah, it does. Everyone else ran to the shed but she was still looking around to see what every one was running from. She was my favorite hen. I have lost many to raccoons too.
