It is taking forever to upload these pictures from my phone to photobucket, probably because I dont have good service here. So I will add the others later, but wanted to go ahead and see if these worked.

I am confused how do you see Zoe, She is not in these pictures, but she is on photobucket, can you go to my photobucket? Just curious, how this all works. Muffin is behind Zoe

Muffin, is the pygmy/nigerian that "might be pregnant" She is sooo sweet, but makes sure heidi knows she is the boss, even though Zoe came from another farm, she follows Muffin around and does what ever she does. I hope the other pictures come through so I can add them, I will just add them to this thread so that I dont start a new one, so check back to see them.

The picture I see is on your post. It's the last one: Zoe is the pygmy standing on the straw bale, right? And Muffin the cutie-pie is in the background

It looks like you linked your pictures just right!

That was kinda strange..last night the brown kitty was showing up for the nubian and an additional pic of boys was at bottom instead of zoe, but now it looks correct...So now all I need to do is add the little babies that are Zeb and Cocoa but they are not as little now.

you did great!! I see em. I love Tito his color and eyes, really drooling over breeding him with my pygmy Gypsy :banana02: a just for fun breeding for little pet goats

Will tell you all that her goat babies are the friendliest goats (unlike my brats)!

Very cute!

That Nubian doe is VERY VERY small for her age, though! Did she get enough to eat before you got her?

No she was just out in a yard when I got her, she was never given grain or hay. She was bottle fed, but I dont know for how long, She is very friendly and sweet, When I got her, they said they thought she was 6 months old, they got her from someone they worked with because the mother had 3 and it was too much for her, so the lady i got her from took her, she was new to all goat stuff, it was her boyfriend that did animals. So I basically rescued her.. started slowly giving her grain and hay and browse...so is looking healthier already, getting a little belly on her. So anyways I am not planning on breeding her yet, cause I am pretty sure she is not big enough, but there was a little pygmy buck running around the yard about a year old and so who knows I guess there is always that chance she is already preg. The only thing they did was deworm her. I gave her vaccines and nutri drench when she came and some probios. I have only had her about 5 weeks.

Tito and Zeb have same father and we were told that Tito is only a day older than Zeb but he is a lot bigger. Even vet thought he had to be older than we were told, but the breeder says she keeps very good records and he is only a day older...so who knows.

They are all adorable goats but that first picture of Tito is so so cute! It's like he's looking at you with that camera like your crazy & trying to figure out what your doing! Great picture of him!
