Almondine's kid is 35 pounds and 20" at the withers @ 1 month old.
@Goat Whisperer how does that compare to typical standard sized kids? I haven't DNA'd her yet.

She looks like a well fed saanen kid

That would be a huge mini. I think she's all saanen. I'd still DNA just to have it on file though.

I love her length, she is a pretty kid.

I'm becoming a sucker for saanens though

I have a 5 month old Nigie doeling who is 30 pounds. I thought she seemed small... How does that compare to typical weights of kids her age?

Her weight is fine as long as she isn't bony.
Our kids ranged from 28-40# at that age. The 28# was a tiny quad and the 40# was a super fat, chubby, food loving doeling LOL
The average for our 2016 nigie kids at that age was 31.8#

Oh good! She isn't skinny, but I noticed the 2-3 month old Nigies were not much smaller than her.

Can you get an idea how rear udder height is going to be on a junior doe or buck?

I hate to tell ya @Green Acres Farm , but that isn't an udder ya are looking at on a buck.....

I didn't know if you could tell the potential rear udder height trait from how high the arch is. I worded that badly.
