NH Homesteader's first kidding season!

She's the one who hates dogs. That'll make getting LGD's easier! Lol

Lilly's doeling looks thin, but is eating and acting normal and bouncy. Gotta check her and mom out closer in the morning. Buckling looks good. She has fed triplets in the past, twins should not be an issue!

Good plan! You might check her udder and make sure both sides are working well. Or maybe that doeling is so bouncy she's working it all off!

Have a 4H family coming to look at them tomorrow

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Hope she sells! Cute babies will help!

 

[NH Homesteader]

She sold! They're coming back to get them Friday. She's also going to disbud and tattoo everyone for me. And she bounced Bellini and she thinks she felt a baby. And she checked out Lilly's doeling and said she's fine, just smaller framed. She is a really smart goat lady, and I made a new friend! Lol she has full size alpines so she isn't afraid of Peppermint's attitude.

 

[frustratedearthmother]

That. Is. Fantastic! A new friend, less goats for you, and she's going to help - SCORE!!!! I've always said goat folks are great people! She just proved it!

 

[NH Homesteader]

Right?? We gave her a deal to help with the disbudding, etc and it is going to save us a ton of money not bringing them to the vet. Good deals all around.

I might keep Lilly's baby. I don't know.

Great news all round! And look at your new avatar! I love it

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Love the new avatar! Absolutely a good thing to work a deal with her for the help she's going to give you. It's great for everybody.

I might keep Lilly's baby

It's hard, huh? Goat math at work!

 

[NH Homesteader]

I had to ditch Peppermint lol! And daydreaming about summer....

I know it is hard. I have to see what happens with Bellini before I make a decision anyway. But she's a doll, the doeling.
