My tiny little men.
Of course its my luck they are all boys.
First one came in normal, next two were breech. Everybody is up and drinking though. All three have blue eyes. Two brown boys have moon spots.

And believe or not, they were kicking up a storm all the way until thirty minutes before they were born

OMG they are adorable. Congratulations! !

GraceAlice · #**565** 03/29/14, 05:02 PM

Don't fret about the boys. Surely you will have some of both genders by the time you are done! Just be glad they are healthy, beautiful, and that you have more pregnant does!

There's no room to hide with triplets.

Maybe trouble will have triplet does.

MirandaT · #**571** 03/29/14, 05:30 PM

I'll have to watch carefully...the runt is still wobbly, and seems kind of wimpy. Also takes a minute to find the nipple and then only sucks for a few seconds. Then has to find it again.
If I did have to bottle feed him, what would I use...

MirandaT · #**572** 03/29/14, 05:31 PM

Other than moms milk.lol
She doesn't like me pulling on them too much.

GraceAlice · #**573** 03/29/14, 05:35 PM

Use whole cows milk or milk some from cadence. I would definitely supplement. A friend of mine had a doe kid out triplets. She thought the runt would do okay, came out the next day and the runt was almost dead (she ended up losing her about 30 minutes later) because her stronger siblings pushed her out of the way. I would give 1-2 bottles of whole cows milk a day. Also, I would feed him some colostrum to make sure he gets his share. His mouth is warm, right?

PS...
She never had any goo. At all. Once she started pushing hard, her water broke...inside her, never seen the bubble...anyways, it shot so far it hit the wall...two feet away..
My goats defied the rules this time ;-)

I was 1 foot away from my doe, Hazel, when all the sudden a bag broke and almost hit my face! I was leaning down behind her to check everything out. .. Oops. Lol! Hazel didn't have goo or a bag up until that point. The bag broke inside before she pushed it out.

I'll check his mouth in a bit. Came in to scrub the blood and goo off of me. I made sure he nursed three different times before I came in. Watched them for over an hour.

GraceAlice · #**578** 03/29/14, 05:45 PM

But they can get weaker over night. Those stronger babies will only get stronger and more dominant over the weak one.

But I hope he gets better.

he should.

MirandaT · #**579** 03/29/14, 06:11 PM

His mouth is warm. And he us hungry. Mama is patient. While I've been sitting here he found the nipple and has been guzzling for five minutes seems to be getting better at it

Their names are
Esau, Ezekiel "Zeke", and Elijah "Eli".
