Roll Farms' March....Peyton kids - better / dry pic pg 10

[Roll farms]

I have a theory...

I used young bucklings on all my ff does this year...and so far, 3 of the 4 have kidded late...almost 3 wks late to the day, to be exact.

I think the does were in heat, but the boys didn't know what they were doing and 'missed'. I saw them be mounted...I wrote it down...but nobody's kidded (except Patches) ON their date. They go 17 to 22 days later.

I am still waiting on Peyton. She's getting HUGE. If my 'theory' is correct, she's due (again ) a week from today.

Then I'll be done.

Except for maybe Penny (Black Ob, bred Tog) in May.

And maybe Patch (paint boer bred, boer) in June.

But then I'll REALLY be done. F'real.

I used a young buck w/ my FF doe this year. Talk about clueless! And, she didn't settle. She has silent heats so I didn't realize it until her sister developed her udder while she didn't.

Very interesting theory.....Both of my FF girls were bred to a young buckling. The kids he already has on the ground aren't from does that are FF. One of my girls is on day 153 and the other isn't due until the 26th of April. Definitely something to think about........

I'm soooo gonna cry...Peyton had beautiful twin....BUCKLINGS!!

Dappled even....and one is a dappled paint.

Seriously considering keeping one as a buckling and using him on my % does....

Wow, they are cool! Too bad they have danglies.

Now THAT is heartbreaking, Roll. Truly sorry those are boys. Good golly they are GORGEOUS! I'd have to keep one if they were mine.

 

[jodief100]

They are beautiful! So sorry they are boys. I would be tempted to keep one just to see what he throws.

 

[chandasue]

Such pretty boys... ain't that always the way...

They are beautiful!! At least now you know what she can produce and hopefully next year she will give you a girl.
