One successful kidding today!

So successful, that I didn't even know it had happened! Chloe, one of our FF Nubians, gave birth to triplets! According to my calculations, she wasn't due until March 30. She had two bucks and one doe. They are sooooo cute! I was babysitting my grandbaby today and my husband came home, went to the bedroom and came back through the house running. He said, "we've got babies in the field." Boy, that got things going around here.

She was also the smallest of all the pregnant ladies. We thought she would only have one. I can't imagine what the others have inside of them.

I'll try to post pictures in the next couple of days. These are our first babies here at Graceful Acres! We're excited!

The best kind! Course, it's also nice to be around but not be needed. But this way you dont stand around biting your nails!
