Congratulations on such pretty doelings.

Wow.
That's 15 does and 7 bucks.

Has anyone ever seen a does eyes do this when she kidded?
30 minutes after she had the kids her eyes were back to normal.
Strain?

I have noticed that their pupils seem to get very dilated, but I've never seen the fleshy part around the eye do that before. So happy for your doe/buck ratio!

Eclipse had twin bucks about 4 am. Apparently, she didn't get the memo regarding appropriate kidding times.

Maurine has a meeting today, so I'm working from home today ( nice perk to my job) to keep an eye on Clarabelle.

So, that makes us 15 does and 9 bucks.

I sent those pictures to our vet. He said it was her inner eyelid and it was caused by the strain.

Is Zamia bred?

Clarabelle had twin does.

Maurine wasn't home and the first one had both legs back. I was about to panic, but I was able to get a leg up. It actually wasn't too bad once I got past my fear.

Is Zamia bred?

Not confirmed, but I think so. She didn't settle the first time. She was bred again, but wouldn't have been far enough along to tell when we ultra sounded. But, we hope so.

So, we are at 17 does and 9 bucks. I think.
