Super exciting. Hopefully you will get does out of the other girls.

Aren't they just the cutest things. It is always nice when things work they way they are supposed to. Congratulations. Was Clover bred to an Alpine buck?

Congratulations! Does are the best and on her first time to have 2 is terrific.

Clover is such a beauty, and those doelings are gorgeous!!! Congratulations, @Goatgirl47 , you did just right by her. You let her roam awhile, and then penned her in time to get the kidding done indoors. Awesome. Your instinct was dead-on. AND...we seem to be continuing with the heavy leaning toward DOELINGS! That's the way, lots and lots of does! WOW! I hope they don't run out before my Jaeger gets around to planting his seed! I get pick-of-the-litter(s) and I want doelings. This is all sooo exciting.
Happy dance, everybody!!! WHOOT, WHOOT! WHOOT, WHOOT!

edit to add: Don't know if this is gonna work or not, but I'm hoping to embed my favorite 30 seconds of this "happy dance":

Okay, it puts the whole video, so you can watch the whole thing or just from 1:34 to 2:04.

YAY!!! That's AWE-some! Glad she was able to be out and about till right before the due time Guess she's a "walk about". Maybe the walking around helped her get the kids positioned and ready to pop. You've got a good eye! So what are your plans for the two beautiful doelings? I hope you'll be keeping at least one!

Congrats!

Congrats!!!!!!

Glad you got the noses cleared

Looks like she is being a good momma! I'm surprised she had 2 in there! And DOES!!!! YAY!!

I assume you will keep at least one?

Glad your first kidding experience was a good one!

Thanks! I'm so glad everything went well my first kidding too.

I want to keep both, but my Mom probably won't let me, unless I sell another goat (or two). We will see...

Thank you!

Some friends came over today and they said that sometime in the future they might want to get a doeling from us (for a milk goat, eventually). We will probably have to sell at least one of them, but I would love to keep both!
In April we will have two more does kidding, and maybe I will want to keep a doeling from one of them, instead of keeping these two.

Congrats! Both are cuties

More pictures!

I had to put them outside in an enclosure for a little bit while I cleaned out the goat house. They were already jumping around some.
