Best of luck to you....but never let 'em know you want a girl, or say, "I think she's close"...that's a sure-fire way to get them to hang on for days and spit out boys.
Well, wouldnt you know, was working all day around the barn, and she waited till i went to work. Grandma just happened to look out the window and saw a baby standing by the fence, so her and grandpa ran outside, and there was a second one by her she was trying to nudge away. Not violently, just like hey quit bothering me. So they called me, i drove like a mad man trying to get there.
I told them to wipe her down with a towel and then wipe them, i heard it helps put her scent on them, well Sassy has always been really gentle so grandma knocked her on her side and rubbed the babies on her, apparently it worked she took to them right after that, like Hey these are my babies, i get this now.
So YAY, no bottle feeding for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats! There adorable! I have a couple of pygmy crosses too, also boer goats. We just finished up our kidding season here. Enjoy the momma and her babies.
