Loving the herd life
Well my Suzzy gave birth on March 21, her 146 day. That morning she was winy and acted like she didn't want me to leave when I was making my rounds. Around 9:20 am. I heard all the girls making a ruckus ( more so than usual ) so I went to see what the commotion was about. I arrived just in time to catch the first baby be for it hit the ground ( For get the rubber gloves ) all I had at the time was a zip off hood and my bare hands to use right away. Had to call and wake my son up ( works nights ) to get me stuff. With in 25min. she had 3 bouncing baby boys, all strong healthy guys. Suzzy was fine but was exhausted. By the time the last one was born my friend Elaine showed up ( had my son call her to come over ) to help finish drying them off. Suzzy resisted them at first, none of them knew what to do so I was persistent at showing the boys were her teats were and showed her she had to spread her legs to let them get to her teats. After a short while every one was on their way to doing what they do best. Suzzy recovered rather quickly and yet I wouldn't leave her side. She knew I was there for her and her little ones. Here are some pics. of them just hours old. The first one ( black with white and chocolate markings ) is d'Artagnan, the Loyal.
The second one ( brown with darker brown spots ) is Porthos, Ever Ready to Fight and a Womanizer. ( he started humping his brothers at 2 hrs. old ).
And the third ( brown with blk. markings ) is Aramis, the Piece Keeper, of hope.
