Thank you. We have decided to name the doe Jenga. Everyone sees something different in her patterns. What do you all see?

First 2 pictures are the doe. Last picture the buck. Trying to get non blurry pictures of them was not easy.

Kate gave birth to twins, buck & doe. Will post pictures of them tomorrow. They are adorable! They're both 7 lbs!

Kate is in first stage labor!! :weeeDay 154. Her udder is HUGE! I did not plan on milking her, she freaks out when touched. But that udder, we may need to help her relieve some pressure once she kids. The udder picture was taken a couple hours ago.

80% of Brownies corneal ulcer is healed! He has vision again. His eye is still cloudy. The vets are really happy with his progress. Recheck in 2 weeks. He is still on all the eye medication just reducing the amount of time we have to do it. All other wounds are almost 100% recovered.

Think were getting close.

Brownies recheck is today. Anxious to hear what the vet says.

Baby goats are like toddlers, putting everything in their mouth. At 1 week, the kid should only be getting milk. My 5 day old Nigerian is nibbling on everything, but not eating it. How much does the kid weigh? Could it be older than 1 week?

Kate's udder has doubled since yesterday. Anxiously waiting. Kate is at day 152. First picture yesterday, second picture this morning.

Yes, calcium can help. I appreciate the advice. I am following vet instructions. Mary has no signs of infection right now. Mary and her baby that my daughters are calling Zel are doing great. Today Kate is day 149. Her udder is not full. However shes acting odd. She does not want us anywhere...

I have had does take up to an hour to pass their plug. Which is why I was waiting. As soon as I felt her cervix, I had a heart sinking feeling. Got on the phone with the emergency vet. It's an hour and a half drive to the vet that will see goats. No one local sees goats. The vet was adamant on...

My daughter just took this picture.

Mary gave birth last night. Day 149. Mary started pushing around 8PM last night. After an hour of her pushing hard with no change, I went and checked on her. Her cervix was one finger dilated. Let her go a little longer. Called the emergency vet. I was not sure what to do or how long to...

I have not. Mary and Kate are not big on attention. They were not handled a whole lot before we purchased them. Keeping stress down for them. We are just watching their udders and any signs they might be getting close. I have had a few does fill their udders while they were in labor. I was...

I can not wait for babies. That is probably why they are both not giving birth yet. Kate is starting to act different, wanting to cuddle with Mary. She usually bullies Mary. Yawning, stretching like a cat. Day 145 for Kate and day 147 for Mary today.

Slight difference in Mary's udder. Kate's udder is changing. Not drastic yet. Today is day 145 for Mary. Kate is day 143. Anxiously waiting.

The dogs have been put to sleep. They were new renters, the dogs were not suppose to be on the property. We found out later this was not the first time the dogs had attacked. They had killed a pig and goat prior. Yes, the vets said that dog bites are horrible. They have so much bacteria, they...
