I have a "dry lot" pen where all the goats live. There's a hoop shelter in there for use during wet weather. I did nothing special for the births aside from keeping an eye opened for what was happening. Dot and Bang delivered twins each, inside the shelter, side by side, at the same time. I was there & assisted with Dot's second. April delivered trips on the ground, outside @like 2am. I was there at the end and made sure all three nursed. They needed no help from me. Creme Brulee (Bangs doeling from last year, CB) delivered twins outside on the ground mid-late morning. I went down and was present at the end and made sure they nursed. All of the goats; moms, babies, the wether, and the buck are all still in the pen together and have been right along, with pretty much zero issues. I separated nobody. Dot didn't nurse last year and Bang adopted her babies this year so all 4 are feeding off Bang with no issues whatever. Since then, Dots babies have also started nursing off her as well They are the largest, best fed, fastest growing of all the kids. Both Dot's kids are bucks and both will make excellent herdsires (and will be advertised for sale in that capacity) IMHO... April and CB's babies know their moms and go to them for sips when hungry. It has become evident that Capn' Crunch (Dots single doeling from last year, CC), my smallest and youngest doe did indeed get impregnated and is widening and starting to pooch out an udder, so I expect she's within a month +/- of her due date.
Emma's bag still isn't tight, but it's getting bigger. Poppy's bag is pretty tight, but her teats aren't filled. The babies have dropped in Poppy for sure, Emma looks dropped one day and Not the next. Come on babies!
they go soon for you with no issues! They look like they're getting close! 
Well, Emma popped out twins this evening. I had been in the pasture for hours this afternoon with no indication she was in labor. I had gone inside for a drink and I heard a goat bellow. I ran to the window in time to see a little doe come flying out. I grabbed my birthing kit and a few minutes later a little buck was born, He is super cute! Both were standing within minutes and nursing. It was a sneaky, lightening fast, textbook perfect birth. I am thankful she made it look easy.
