Niggies can have 6 that I know of.

Twins and triplets in large breed goats and every once in awhile 4.


By the way she is due on the 7th if I did not screw up record keeping.

I do not want 10 & 13 pound babies !

I would guess 4 or 5. I had two nigies deliver quads this year and they didn't even look that big!

Gracie looked just like that yesterday morning and now I have 3 beautiful boys. I can't believe how skinny she looks to me now. So tell me, how did you get the pictures up on this page? Please walk me through it as though you are explaining it to a 3 year old. I know nothing about this little box and with more babies to come soon, I won't be getting better any time soon. My guess is 3.

Patty, how old is she and how many pregnancies has she had?

Looking at that pasture that she is on, no wonder she is so fat. It looks good enough for me to eat.
I just wish we could get some moisture to get a little green around here
