Great pics! Poor Aunt B!
I know, she is moving kind of slow these days. I will be really disappointed if I don't get at least one doe out of this breeding. :fl

Okay, here are some more pics. These are some pics of my does that I decided to keep this year. They aren't the best photos, because I cropped them out of group pictures.

This doeling is out of Glory and Prooved It and she is fullblood. She is kind of ordinary looking, but has the complete package with smoothness, good teats(2x2) and good pigmentation. Her sister is a little flashier looking, but didn't have as good a teat structure. I named her Chloe.

Valentine is out of Snowball and Karamba. born the week of Valentine's Day, and had a heart shape on her back for a while, but know it looks like a blob. She is the thickest doe born this year on our farm, but not the prettiest. She is 93% boer

In this picture Valentine is on the left and Chloe's sister is on the right. Cloe's sister isn't sold yet, I have someone coming to look at her, if she doesn't sell I am taking her off the sales page and keeping her.

This doe I named "Just Wow" and is out of Indie and Twister. I love this doe. She is 100% boer, but her mom is not registered.

This is a 75% boer/ 25% nubian doe and out of Tori and karamba. She is named Tori Ann and she will be the replacement for Lorily, since she prolaped.
she is on the right, not the best picture of her.

In this picture she is laying down and is the one in the front of the picture.

A couple other odd and end pictures.

This is a doe I sold, that I am being paid room and board for until they can come and get her. The longer I have her the more I wished I had kept her.

I would be....I am really looking forward to seeing what Sundance produces. He bred one doe last summer, Spicey, and she had 3 gorgeous triplets, but only one doeling. But the other two made our best market wethers. Cocoa, the doeling, is a good size doeling, over 60 pounds, and she has her daddy's gorgeous head and eyes. I'll try to get a pic of her. Sundance only bred one other doe, Sugar, who was Spicey's daughter, and if you recall, she just fell over and died a couple of months ago. Those babies i was so looking forward to!

But he gets to breed quite a few this season, all the daughters of Remington, and I think we are going to breed Spicey to Remington this time, to see what she does.

It is hard to decide which buck to breed with which doe. We will be using 3 bucks this fall, And will have 18 or so does to breed, plus an additional 4 yearlings a little later in the season. I guess I will just divide them up equally and see how it goes. Although I already know that this year I will be putting my biggest older does with Goldman, since he is a pretty aggressive breeder. The problem will be when my yearlings need to be bred he may be more buck than they can handle and out of the 4 there is one for sure I would like to breed to him. We have talked about lutalysing the younger/smaller does and only putting them with him when they are for sure in heat. Although I do think he seems a little calmer this year than last year. Too many decisions.


Love to see pictures of Sundance's doeling.
