Our first Mini Lamanchas!

Can I even call both of them that?

Hannah is a petite all white ND doe, polled with wattles, FF at 2 years old. We bred her to a MM buck with blue eyes. She surprised us with twin doelings that weighed 4 and 5 Pounds! I've never had ND's that big.

The black one is polled (I'm positive), has wattles and elf ears. The white one has ND ears, wattles and blue eyes. Is the white one still considered a MM?

We are waiting on 2 more ND's crossed with the MM buck. It's fun seeing what comes of it!

Congrats! The black would be a mini mancha and the white could be called a grade Nigerian or a mini mancha with upright ears.

But can they be REGISTERED as MiniManchas with upright ears?
