3 ft... WOW.... 12 lbs... HOLY CRAP! I know women(including myself) who would thinking about a woman passing a baby that big!! I feel for poor Penny!! MAN!! But he is a pretty "little" buckling!
I can't OWN a Nigi buck, I just need him for 5 mins. once a year. I'd happily pay a breeding fee, though. I'll worry about that if / when the time comes.
I just have nowhere to keep one where my 'big boys' wouldn't have access to him. And I am at 5 bucks now....seems silly to have one to service only 1 doe.
I have decided to keep her in milk as long as she will produce (she went 16 mos last time and was actually still in milk when we decided to breed her to the Togg, then dried her off) so I can see her lactating for 2 yrs straight.
I had a delivery like that this year too. My 60 pound mini doe delivered a 7.5 pound doeling that nearly turned her vulva inside out! The kid was so big she had to squat down to nurse right from the start.
Right after birth:
But I think your kid might have mine beat, wow. He's a good looking boy at least.
He is an absolute MONSTER, Roll! Good golly. If you breed her again you might consider a CIDR. Maybe you could get some multiples? And yeah, go to Kate's for a "date."
