Had a meeting with Mark, the guy we got our boys from and for whom we're gonna stud 2 does, and came up with a breeding plan. Also, I got a very confusing point of clarification from him. As it turns out, despite what we were informed 7 mos ago, and therefore, have believed erroneously for said 7 mos, our boys are NOT pygmies, they are, in point of fact, Nigerian (or is that Norwegian?) dwarves. WOW!!! What a surprise. Now I need to think about my plan to buy a Pygmy doeling. The one good thing is that Nigies are far more common around here than Pygmies, so we should be able to acquire does for far less than I had originally expected. Yay? :hu

This is Wren the third of the triplets. She reminds me very much of her dam and grand-dam. So solid. I have a feeling she will produce like they do!:)
