At least your bucks have their feet on the ground...mine have been standing on their hind legs against the fence for a couple weeks now, lol. Rare to see them on all fours!

Good looking ladies!

Not so far

After and before
This is Dee
I bet the judge says she's over conditioned, over finished, fleshy, too loved or some other nice way of saying to fat
My experience is that fleshy Jrs make good mamas which is what we shoot for
The two does behind her is her grandma in front and her mama in back

how old is she? Our 2 does from April would probably be considered too loved and their brother too!

She was born in March so she is 6 months old
She weighed 40 lbs last time we weighed her which was several weeks ago
Pebbles is her aunt and she weighed 45 but she will probably do better at the show because she is longer legged with the weight
I know one judge in particular who would put the two of them last and next to last but I don't care about that
I bet they will be great FFs which is more important to me
