Jillis - Gremlin's a Daddy!

well, we got a wonderful little bottle buck from Jillis last spring who we proceeded to spoil shamelessly. He actually slept with us in our bed for a few months. Well he is a big beautiful herd buck now and this morning he became a poppa for the first time. He actually snapped his head around when he saw the two new girls that sabriel had for us. She was actually by our astute calculations not due until the end of February. Apparently we were confused.
We had been discussing that there was no way she was going to make the middle of February let alone the end of February. We have one all black little girl and one black with gray/white ears with a gray/white triangle on her head.


We will have pictures of Gremlin (for Jill - been promised for months) and the babies later today. THe printer that has the card slots are in my sons room and frankly I would rather eat raw snakes than go in his room alone to get it!

Oooooooooooo!!! I can't wait to see pictures of Gremlin grown up! And of his babies! His sister is just a exquisite and outstanding goat in so many ways! There were awesome bloodlines on both sides there.

YAY!

Thanks for the update. Now get those pictures uploaded or you will be finding raw snakes on your doorstep! <grin>

This is the 2 girls, and Momma - Sabriel chewing one of her favorite things - a piece of bread. She is such a good mom. She delivers like they are the size of mice. I love this goat - except for the horns.

Hopefully this worked for me
