Does she look like a full blood Nigerian Dwarf?

[Jewls819]

I got this little girl about 2 weeks ago and the people did not know much about her because she was bought for thier daughter at Christmas by her grandfather. THey had been keeping her in a dog kennel all by herself. She seemed very health good eye color and all but her hooves were terribly overgrown. I brought her home anyway. Clipped her feet and she is doing great. I just dont have a clue as to how old she is. The grandfather said she was a dwarf and she certainly looks like one to me. What do yall think? Reguardless she is super sweet and mine now ;-).

Could be but something about the shape of the horns makes me not 100% sure. Maybe get a few more shots of her head? No matter though, she is pretty.

Not sure.

She is pretty though. Nice color.

How tall is she at the withers?

She doesn't look very old though

I keep looking at her head shape and horn setting. I am still not sure she is 100% ND. If you can check her teeth, you could get some idea of how old she is.

She is about 18". She is a little taller than my other two does that are nig/pyg crosses and very close to my bucks size he is a pyg/nig cross too. I think she is rather young too. I am just so glad to have found her, whatever she is she is beautiful. She reminds me of a mini Deer.
This is Jesco he is about a year old pictured with her.

This is Honey Bee. She looks most like a pygmy out of all of them.

This is Pricsilla I have her in a different pen right now with her kids so I have not compaired them yet.

About her teeth...what do I look for?

I know these are sheep, but it's still the same principle... The middle pair of incisors is replaced first with permanent teeth and every year they lose another pair of incisors on the outside of the previous pair of incisors lost to replace.

Lamb. Notice how all the teeth are roughly the same width and height.

Yearling. Notice how wide & tall the two middle teeth are.

1 & a half lol - notice how the second pair of incisors is only half way developed...there's one permanent and one baby.

'almost' 2 years. The baby tooth in the previous pic was lost and the permanent tooth is almost all the way in.

As for the teeth pictures......Love them! I may be weird but I have always found that interesting and your pictures are great!
