Newest Twins

Well I am not sure what they are mini-Boers? lol
Mimi was not suppose to be pregnant from the ND buck and had a shot of lute but here we are 5 months later with some twins. One buckling and one doeling. Mimi is old enough at 15 months old to be pregnant but I wanted it to be with a Black percentage Boer ( dash of Nubian ) like Mimi. Jim got that into my head and I wanted to see the results. There is always next year and these guys are cute.
It was cool to finally have a touchable doe having kids. She came running up to me yelling. She followed me to the barn and was pushing against me and the barn and yelling her head off. She was ok with me getting some colostrum till she put her dang foot in it. I will try to get some more later.


The first born, a buckling:
