She went finally!
I've been pacing all week but she went....my saanan FF had twin bucklings and all is well....I CAN"T wait to milk this gal! but I'm leaving the boys on her for now. No trouble at all! I've been admiring her jugs for weeks now

Snubian bucklings well actually Nubian/saanan. One is white and one is grayish brown with lots of black trim (he's a pig!) and the piglet was watching it all...from her dog crate! I'll try to post a pic later...

I was hoping for girls but .....this'll do!

Full nubain due next month and possibly a very pudgy cross after that...winter milk!

If you think she has enough, you may want to milk out some to keep her production up. I have a LM doe that I have to milk out the excess. She gets very uncomfortable if I don't milk out about half of what she has there at least every 36 hours. Her babies just cannot take enough till later. I had to do that even on her FF. Her twins usually catch up w/ in 2 - 3 weeks. Her babies look like fat cows.
