? about my jr. Does

[RPC]

So since I had the problems with Sky last year being too small to kid and having a c-section I am waiting till my does are atleast 15 month+ to breed. I was told 8 months and 80 pounds is good but that didn't work well for me. So I have 3 does who are just eating and growing until they get bred next year. Now I am wondering am I feeding them too much. I love a thick stocky boer doe but I am worried my thick stocky does are turning into thick fat does. I don't want them to be too fat for the show next year and be too fat for breeding so what do you all think. Should I cut back a little on the grain? Or do they look just fine and I should keep up with what I am doing. Cashmere is the same height if not taller then Sky and Joy who are due in January with their second freshening's. I trimmed hooves yesterday and while they were on the stand I snapped a few photos of them with my Blackberry so they are not the best pictures. ( I promise one day I will have a short post)

Faith (Hope's grand dam) Since she was up there I decided to get pictures of her and Sky.

Me, I'd keep 'em on the 'thick' side until spring, then cut 'em back (if needed) and exercise the heck out of them w/ plenty of time before the show to turn that 'thick' into 'muscle'.

Kim that's the plan but just wanted to make sure....Thank you. I will tell Faith you say HELLO.....I am sure she sends you kisses since she always loves to give them. She is our only goat that gives kisses.
