Blessed...............

All the does have kidded (four) and all the kids arrived safely. We had quads, twins, twins and triplets.....6 doelings and 5 bucklings. We raise Nubian and Nubian/Boer cross. Six purebred Nubians, three doelings and three bucklings. Five cross, three doelings and two bucklings. All are absolutely lovely, all spoken for except one doeling. One more doe to kid with Jine 1st due date, two doelings of hers spoken for if she has girls.

A little rest until the sheep lamb starting @March 23rd. Katadhin, two boys spoken for. We have small herds but always sell out and are very proud of our animals. 18th year for the goats, 3rd for the sheep.

Two baby goats dancing in the sunshine? LOL! I love this time of year - even though the weather is icky.

Congrats! I will be glad when all my girls are done & I can stop worrying about them!
