I want does! I’d be happy with just being able to milk my girls though. Here’s a few pics (all from this week) and some basic info. The rest is on my kidding thread.

Snowflake: today is Day 151 or Day 138 depending on when she bred.

Snowflake is my bred or may not be bred, can’t decide...last Day 145 possible is 4/12. Sometimes I think she’s just fat and other times I completely convinced she has kids in there.

I feel like it’s been a male year. Our cattle are 5 bulls and 2 heifers with 3 more to go. The one breeding I cared about the gender, got the opposite. My only goat to kid so far had trips, 2B/1D. I’m keeping a buck and a doe out of her but don’t plan on keeping a buck out of anyone else...doelings would definitely get to be retained!

It definitely seems to be a male year lol. I am getting 2 bucklings here in a bit (once they are weaned) so I really don't need to keep one of mine, not only that but I don't know what any of my girls (or the bucks they were bred to) improve on/pass down. Really praying hard for at least 1 doe from her, I don't even care if it's a solid black or solid white (can't stand those 2 colors if they are 100% solid without any other color I don't know why lol)

Thank you! For some reason, the solids don’t bother me. I’m not a fan of moonspots. Some are fine on some goats and others are just plain ugly. Just my opinion. I think “the heart wants what the heart wants” is totally relevant! ;)
