    Growing the Herd! - Goat math strikes again!

    Rosie's getting some company this weekend! I picked out two bottle baby Nubian doelings. They are pretty much the cutest things ever. I seriously can't wait to pick them up!

    Coming soon!

    Finchley and her kits are still doing really well. It's been pretty chilly for the last few days so we have then in a little cage in the garage with a heat lamp over them. We lost a lot of kits this winter (we had three whole litters including Pev's that didn't make it) so we want to give these...

    Coming soon!

    Well, this didn't go the way I had hoped. Both of my girls had two kits each. Finchley, the black one who didn't pull much fur still has both of hers. They are black just like her. Pevensie, the white and black one lost both of hers before I found them. It looks like she had them in the box, but...

    Coming soon!

    My first litter of mini lops is due tonight! My girls have been working hard for a couple days to make nice, warm nests. There was a mountain of white fur in one box when I woke up this morning, but no babies. I think it's going to happen soon, though! :D Here are some pictures of the parents...

    Doe pulled fur 7 days ago, still no babies....

    Have you been able to feel any babies? If you flip her onto her back (she may or may not cooperate with that, just be gentle but persistent) you can sometimes feel little marble-like things on her tummy. Did you monitor her weight? We like to weigh them the day we breed and then again every...

    What to Expect When Your Goat's Expecting?

    Thank you, everyone. I started working on a kit last week. I still have a couple more things I'd like to put in it, but I've got a good start. My parents have been pretty firm about not wanting a goat-- baby or otherwise-- in the house. Maybe I can talk them into the basement... lol Just about...

    Lost Two Goats In a Month

    Update on Rosie: Ohio has been predictably unpredictable lately. After enjoying 70+ degree weather for half the "winter" we are now experiencing winter with a vengeance a week before spring. Joy. Anyway, every time there is a cold snap, Rosie spends a lot of time in the barn. I'm not sure what...

    What to Expect When Your Goat's Expecting?

    I'm sure all of my questions could be answered by surfing through the other threads on this site more deeply, but I'm pretty new around here and still feeling my way around. Anyway, my Rosie-girl (two year old Alpine) is pregnant! Her due date is April 17th, and as the time is getting closer...
