June is starting to fill in a little more. She's got 9ish days left. I forget what her actual date is, but she's bred for the second week of December. This will be June's 3rd freshening, first with us. She has starred in both previous freshenings and we hope to continue her on test. She, and a few of my other does, are getting their annual appraisal in April. It's a little nerve racking, this waiting game.

Prudence gave us another buck/doe combo. They both tried to come out at the same time. She birthed without assistance, by the time I got towels and dressed and ran out there she had managed to unlodge the large twins.

The buck was breech, the doe was good . They just came out at the same time!

Prudence is a good Mama, but I helped her clean the kids off because she was spending more time on the buckling and it's a little chilly to be wet and new.

Both kids have eaten and are up on their feet. Good strong legs and lungs, they're LOUD!

Buck is red, doe is cream.

I need to do a photo shoot. Nine kids on the ground in 72 hours. Holy tramoli.

I have to head to work now. I'm late enough. These kids are strong, and big. The doe was 5lbs, the buck almost 7! No wonder Prudence 9was so big! I wish my phone took better pictures, but, here's a few more.

Then I checked on Dharma and integrity. They're little balls of energy. They had found a warm spot and curled up.

Apparently it's warmer behind the house than in it. .
