Just looked at your website Southern by choice...you've got some fine-looking animals there!!

Thank you! I am actually in the middle of updating- UGH so many more animals and udders and babies to add. Hoping to hit the publish update button tonight.
Maybe when I do you could look at it again.. I rely on people to tell me when links are broken or something isn't right. I really haven't updated in two years... maybe a pic here and there.


Anyway A full view would have been better on the video but I am thinking it is some re positioning but could also be kids hitting a nerve. Our one doe always has issues with her one leg bur she has had Quads, Quints, Quads... poor thing the stay on that nerve.
The goat in the video has a lot of hair so it is hard to see but she looks a little sunken but hard to see if she is actually dropped.
The other doe that you had the rear shot of... keep an eye on that udder... looks like it is growing.
Sometime goats will put chest down and butt up trying to move kids around.

Multiples can be genetic
But sometimes not
Also I have observed that some traits skip a generation
I had a doe who had quads,triplets, quads, Triplets
Her daughter has kidded twice
Both times twins
One of her daughters just kidded for the first time with quads

Twins are always best
I would take 2 every time

ME too! I don't mind trips with Nigies- they can do trips so easy.... but two is perfect!
