Introducing Rock and Lila my Nigerian Dwarfs

[whiskeylivewire]

Rock is on the left(his registered name is Shamrock Tiny Dude) and Lila is on the right. Rock's horns are partially showing, I don't know if the debudding was done right or what...it looks weird lol. They are both pretty wild but I'm sure that I can correct at least her. The woman I bought them from said that she was bred last month and if she's not to try again in August(when they would be due). Rock is 2 1/2 and Lila is 2.

Congratulations! They are very cute! Alot of bucks when disbudded even if it is done right end up with scurs. I think it has alot to do with testosterone.

Oh, thank you! DH was like "what the beep is wrong with his head?" Glad to know it's normal

Now I want to find a Nubian to breed to him

They are cute! Congrats to you My little wether has scurs too. Sometimes they get knocked off...and then grow back. Just keep an eye on them that they don't start growing into their head.

Oh, someone had asked, the buck was born at Shamrock Farms in Cassville, MO. Shamrock farms is owned by the Stewart family.

Congrats! To tame them down, give lots of yummy treats and scritchies wherever they let you touch them. Untill they are consistently friendly, try to keep them in an enclosed area like a dog kennel (looks like that's what you're already doing) so they can't run away from you. It shouldn't take them long to figure out that every time you show up, they get something good to eat. Try to put collars on them if they don't have them already, it will help you get a hold of them if you need to.

Thanks! We ordered the electric web fencing and we're waiting for it to get here(Monday I hope). Right now they are in a dog pen and it's where they will stay the nights as well. I'm going outside to sit with them now. It's too humid inside the house and I don't want to turn on the AC yet!
