Molly just gave birth to one beautiful doeling!
As most of you may remember my Thread: "Are they pregnant?"
I wasn't sure till this day, since she always was and still is fat!

This early afternoon she started screaming....I went to see what's going on.
I look and see a big udder and teats standing sideways!
She build udder over night!

I stayed with her for about 2-3 hrs. She was having contractions.
I took my cooler with birthing kit, I sit in their barn and I was praying....for not complicated birth.
Finally water burst and within minute little white hooves emerged.

Molly was pushing so hard for about 5 minutes and she screamed terribly!
Then....blum! And whole baby came out at once!
I dried her with towel and put a front of Molly.
Molly licked her...baby was looking for teats right away.
Within next 5 minutes baby was standing and nursing!


There she is, little "MANCHA"
MINUTE OLD.

Thank you guys!
It seems like God gave me precisely what I wrote on this Forum once; "I dont want too many goats.what Im gone do with themI wont sell them in worry what kind of home they get, I wont kill them"
So, He gave me only one girl! Im only interested in milk and looks like Im getting there slowly.For now I let the baby to have all the milk, so she can grow strong. Looks like she is doing good job on it, because udder was pretty smallish this morning.

Now Lolly is next. Should be soon, since she already have sizeable udder and belly way down to the ground :D
