Our little NMGA grade Nigerian doe who's kids we lost on New Year's is recovering nicely! She gave us nearly a quart of first colostrum when we milked her post kidding but then her production dropped steeply since her appetite was off. Her production started improving a few days ago and we're getting back to normal now. We are just so relieved she's ok and wanted to share the good news! :)

Here's a picture from this morning:

So sad you lost the baby, but I am thrilled to hear that the momma is doing good! Plus the exra colostrum in the freeze doesn't hurt :)

Wow! That picture needs a "Got Milk?" caption under it.

So sorry you lost the baby, but I'm glad the mama is doing fine... and it looks like you'll be getting plenty of milk over the next few months. Enjoy!

If I had a nickel for every time that thought popped into a man's head after seeing a woman's mammary system I would be a wealthy individual indeed. :p
