Exclamation She's going!

It's been an exciting week! My pony uh, Boer/Nubian doe is just about ready to pop. I think I've got Murphy's Law figured out by now, so I'm predicting a big, single buckling...lets hope I'm wrong!
Ligaments are gone and shes "poochy" back there.

Holding my breath for a doeling!

Oh, how lucky for you!! This is my mother's first year raising Nigies, and all of her does (so far) have thrown black kids with white noses and ears. She's soooo disappointed - especially since the buck was a cute spotty thing! Then a couple days ago another one kidded... A really boring-looking chamoisee, and a gorgeous little painted thing with blue eyes. Bet you can't guess which one was the buck!!

You've got some good goat karma there, I think! *lol*

I think the lighter one is pretty, but that darker one is GORGEOUS! If you decide to give her up, I'll expect her in a box on my porch soon! *lol*
