You should've titled your thread "Do My Goats Look Pregnant?" for you know who. And congrats on the new triplets. Minelson is right though, and now starts the "bedlam with babies" as I like to put it. It is so much work, but soooo much more fun. PLEASE post pics.

Well, the buckling was reserved as a graft kid for a friend, so he is already packed off to her house with a bottle of colostrum. She will be putting him on a Nubian doe that had a single for her.
That leaves the doeling in the back room by herself, but I don't think she will be alone for long....Crystal is acting like she may go any minute.

Here is what Crystal looked like at 6:30 this morning. See how full her udder is compared to the original Crystal photo I posted? Now she is standing in a corner.....I think it will be soon.

Silly me - I read your post wrong. I thought you were saying that you had a buck and then doe twins. What a goof.

Well....Crystal had twin does at 4:00 this afternoon. Very pretty red girls with big appetites. All three of the girls are playing behind me in the kitchen as I type.
I had pictures but when I went to download them, my camera had eaten them.
