Thanks guys....it's so sad....she was beautiful. She was born immediately after the buckling with no break in between and appeared to share the same sac. Does that sound correct?

Unfortunately I was forced by circumstances to leave the buck in with the does until only recently. He had been a problem with head butting the girls in their pregnant sides. I'm supposing this was the likely cause of the stillbirth. The doeling was fully formed, nothing malformed at all, but she was smaller than the buckling a wee bit. The little guy is doing really well.....a box of beans! Splitting image of his dad Jabari. Depending on what Aaliyah has, we may keep this solo kid as Jabari's penmate.

Still waiting on Aaliyah to give birth. No signs yet. I think I've felt her baby/ies moving today so hopefully all is good with hers.

Hey, welcome back and all the residences for the goats look great! Nicely done! :D Sorry you lost the doeling, that's a shame, but you do have a healthy bucking. From the looks of both those girls udders @ the beginning of the thread, they both looked close to me so wasn't surprised that Khaleesi had already kidded as I read and caught up. I don't think Aaliyah will be far behind. Jabari looks a bit upset with the added bed frames... :lol: Poor guy... Looking fwd to pictures of the next kids born! :fl:pop

Goodness gracious how time flies. It just seems like you were posting questions about Khaleesi birth (last year). I'm not showing my goaties where your goaties live... jealous goaties are not happy goaties.

Sorry for the loss of the doeling. Good luck with Aaliyah.

My how your herd has grown!
