Goat Whisperer's Kidding thread ~ Leah kid pics :)

I'm sure she will be fine
We have observed that smaller babies from trips and quads stay proportionally smAller to the larger babies from singles and Twins for the first year then catch up by 18 months or so
I'm sure Bunny will too ( and I like that name )

That tiny little doeing is ADORABLE!! Sorry to hear the little buckling didn't make it
But the rest are so super cute!

Wow - quads! Sorry for your loss, but so glad that Leah made it through and that the 3 surviving kids are doing so well. Their coloring is beautiful!

I have been so backed up on BYH lately, I had 160 alerts

Naomi kidded last week, I will try to get pics up soon! She had huge buck/doe twins, they were 5lbs EACH! Both are blue eyed.

Leah's kids are doing great! Little Bunny was up to 2lbs 6oz's! She is so darn adorable! I have decided to keep her for a bit

I am very happy with what Leah is producing She has had excellent stand manners too!

Glad to hear little Bunny is good
Wow those are big twins
I thought Gingers were big at 4-4 and 4-14
Most of our twins log in between 3 and 4
People talk about cutting back on grain so you don't have big kids but when you have such a cold year they eat so much hay....

That is the strange thing....I didn't grain my pregnant does this year, they just had hay-mostly orchard and some alfalfa. Last year I had a few big singles, that is the reason why I didn't grain this year.

Naomi isn't a very big goat either, she weighs 59lbs. She wasn't fat or skinny when she was bred and her condition has always looked good. She is slightly thin right now because of kidding though. She didn't look very big, I was SHOCKED she had 2 in her!

The buck I used on her has had lots of other kids, so its not that he throws big kids
