Flooded Creek Farm Goat Cam. Weighed the babies...WOW!!!

[fortheloveofgoats]

Two girls and a boy. #1 doeling - just a little over 3 pounds, #2 buckling - 4 pounds, #3 doeling - 4 pounds. All have had a drink, had their cords dipped first time, will redo in a little while. Still waiting for afterbirth. All three up and wobbling, Elsie seems to be doing fine. Man, once she decided to get serious, she sure didn't waste any time. First one came out head first with legs back, just had to flip one of them a bit and out she came. Others just fell out with no probs. Will post pics later tonight if I get a chance, if not, first thing tomorrow morning. WHOOOHOOOO I have babies. Way to go Elsie.

So happy to hear that! Can't wait to see pics.

We watched the barn cam and that is SO addicting! LOVE barn cam. Cute babies. Congratulations. Elsie practically shot them out of her bottom. If you didn't watch closely you could have missed it.

These babies are not going to be spoiled....Meet Papaboid.

All are doing great. Elsie ate her supper, had a nice long drink, and is being very attentive. Babies are all nursing, all seem to be wobbling around pretty good. I am kicked back in my recliner and looking forward to only setting the alarm for 3 hour intervals tonight instead of every hour. Hope everybody has a great night, I sure am!!

Not sure, and if they are, it won't be until May. Hopefully, we will have 3 due then.

We have a system for naming the babies. Babies all get names that start with the first letter of Mama's name. The letter behind will be the same as the first letter in the father's name. E for Eli or D for Dude. So three babies out of Elsie and Eli all get E names with the E after.
