Those are some big kids! How much do her kids usually weigh at birth? She may have only had two, but wow, she might have had nearly the same weight's worth of kids as if she had 4.
The big girl (no brown) is part roan. The brown legged gal hasn't any roan, but she does have frosted ears. Dang. Hoping first-freshener Jet throws a full-roan girl... No pressure, of course. LOL!

Last couple of kiddings, Trub averaged +/- 9 pounds a kid, about 36 pounds total.

We are very pleased with how well she bounced back right after kidding this time. When she has quads, it just takes so much out of her.

Congrats Pony~

Boy, those are two really nice girls. Give me twins like that any day. It is easier on the mommas. Boy..those are some of the nicest looking Nube babies I've seen.

Does he ever make it to MO? We can try to schedule the next pit bbq around his visit.

Thanks so much for all the good wishes and positive strokes.

To respond to comments, I'm not terribly tiny (5'4") but I'm not too big either. Ever since I was a child, I've wanted to be about 5'10". Ha!
