Oh, come on! We want firecracker babies! :pop

I think the goats will probably have a higher chance of getting choked on the peanut butter. I just mix it in with their food, but if you want to make sure everybody is getting the right dose, the balls are nice to use.

Gosh, I love LaManchas. I can't wait to get mine. :love

The mucous type stuff red? If so, that's probably the placenta. By the point, she should have kidded the other. If she is still in distress (moaning, pushing/having contractions) you need to get in there ASAP and see if the kid needs to be delivered by you. I hope everything is ok!

It depends on when you want to have kids coming off. Since a doe's heat cycle occurs every 30 days or so, you'll need to keep him with the does you want bred (those over 12 months of age or 80 pounds) for a couple of months. Watch how he behaves around each doe to get a time frame for breeding...

Ours were standing out in the rain (a thunderstorm) yesterday and they acted like it was the best thing ever. Probably because it's been pushing 100 degrees here for the past week or so.

We have 2 Great Pyrenees - 1 male and 1 female. The male is the one that runs towards the disturbance while the female stands back with the goats.

I'm sure everything will go just fine! Keep us updated!

Just keep an eye out for pregnancy toxemia in this heat. I had a friend who lost a Boer doe earlier this week to toxemia/heat that was due to kid in less than a week.

I like it, especially when they really seem to appreciate my efforts.

Picture #1 makes him look more muscular. Look at the rolls on his neck, for example.

They are looking better!!!! Here is something else I ran across that has rave reviews for skin issues: Nu-Stock. http://www.nustock.com/merchant.ihtml?cid=4&step=2

I don't think I would want a calf nursing my goat. That sounds like it could spell trouble as that calf gets older and stronger than mama.

:lol: She looks like she would bite. LOL!

Their colors are fantastic! What color was the buck you used?

Triplet DOELINGS - That's a great surprise! :)

How about torturing a pregnant lady, will ya? :P

Sunday, June 5th at 9 am? :)

I, too, have heard of somebody loosing goat kids to their donkey. The donkey was picking them up by the back of their heads and slinging them around. Needless to say that donkey didn't make it through the day.

Yeah, I was about to suggest to take a picture every week to see how she's progressing. Sometimes it is really hard to tell a difference unless you have pictures to compare.
