WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Were you there for the births? Congrats!!
Sadly I only herd them yelling in the shed, it looks like she has an easy delivery and delivered only a little while before i got out there. She was still cleaning the biggest of the two.from what I can see she has eaten the placenta and passed the after birth! She's being such a good mama! She's constantly licking and cooing to her babies and she's not pushing one away from what I can tell, the only thing I'm worried about is the doeling can't seem to find the nipple.... the males got it covered though.... so I need to invest in some formula.

Sorry I know these aren't the best photos but here are some clearer shots . The doeling has floppy ears! She is so cute!!!! And she is extremely loud, the exact opposite of her father :lol: the little male is quite quiet he has this tiny little bleat that doesn't match his size .

Oh dear. Well I disagree! You should totally get to stay home. Lol!

Yeah see if she can do that because she needs to get colostrum. If she can't nurse one of you will need to milk some out for her (she needs it in the first 24 hours)
I will try and do that. I don't want to lose one.
