Loving the herd life
We have new babies.
4/7/18 Millie (Nubian) had triplets. 2 does and a buck. One of the doelings was small, and while we tried everything, she ended up passing in my arms last night.
We still have Missy, the Alpine due...????? then nothing until June, and one in August.
Spotted is the buck (of course)...

Cute!!
See, it's because you WANT spots that the buck ended up with them... Had you NOT wanted spots, the doe would have gotten them. Sorry you lost the one but grats on the 2 survivors.

I don’t think I’ve seen a Nubian with the coloring of that doeling. I really like her. Sorry about the spots on the buck but IMO the Doeling is cuter. Hate that you lost one!

Exactly, though "no good horse is a bad color" but that wild color did throw me for a loop. Dad isn't spotted, neither is Mom.
These guys are Kiko/Boer X Nubian, Millie was bred when I got her. That buckling might make someone a nice commercial buck or a show wether depending on how he turns out, or a really pretty pet, lol.
Back to the waiting game for Missy. That will be an interesting one, Boer x Alpine kids. She's been bagged up for about two week but not tight yet.
Then the real fun in June with 3 Nubians and 2 Boers all due within about 2 weeks, and finally Boer x Commercial Boer in August. I *should* get spots out of two the Nubian does due in June, they are both moonspotted and my Nubian bucks parents are spotted, but he isn't. No clue what I'll get out of the Nubian x Commercial Boer does this summer.

Oh, and this is the mom to the two new babies. She's a big girl, this was taken a couple of days before she kidded, those are 5 ft horse panels behind her.

Twin doelings out of Missy the Alpine. Born yesterday afternoon. Both are Alpine marked, but airplane ears.
