Bored on this fine friday morning :) Took a few quick photos of the 4 does that we have.

Two could go at anytime, I have noticed them getting steadily larger. They were living with the buck when I got them so I have NO idea how far along they are.

The other two are about 2.5 months along. They have both kidded before, twins for one, triplets for the other.

The buck...I am hoping for some flashy babies from everyone since the buck has minimal white spots. Color doesn't really matter though, as long as they are healthy :)

Those first two does have such a pretty gray/silvery color! Good luck on the kiddings!

Thanks! I'm excited to see what pops out :)

The first one is grey, the second is black. I think its the flash that made her look grey.

This is them when we first brought them home.

It will be neat to see what the babies look like.
 
Oh, nice! I'm a softie for that coloration pattern of your buck - don't know what it's called, but when they have black on top and under as if they were outlined :). It'll be fun to see what the girls throw!
 
2goats8kids All 3 look like they could be pygmy mixes. If thats the case & the buck has frosting on his ears & muzzle he would probably be a medium to dark caramel. If he is a Nigerian mix it would be Chamoise (Chamoisee for does). The grey doe looks grey agouti.
 
Weeee!!! The black and white has a puffy vulva and is starting to bag up :D I'm excited!

We put a bin in their stall for privacy in case they kid over night unexpectedly.

They look so much like my Daisy. That last one could almost be her! What kind are they? We bought Daisy at an auction and have no background on her. Here she is.

I have two chocolate ones that are Nigerian dwarves, the grey I'm pretty sure is a Pygmy and the B&w is likely a Pygmy/mix.
