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.Roll farms said:Great pics! Poor Aunt B!

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.SDBoerGoats said: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.
