The ears didn't come through
Molly is a registered experimental. Her dam is from Emily's herd. She is Out of an Amberwood buck any the doe (Storm) that I got from someone else that came by way of Emily. She had a beautiful doe. Will the doeling be experimental too?

Look at the size of that newborn compared to a 9 day old kid. Newborn is the closer one.

Experimental.
Copied from ADGA ...

RULES FOR ENTRY INTO EXPERIMENTAL
REGISTRY
Experimentals are the product of the mating of registered
American or Purebred parents of different breeds. The
mating of the Purebred or American parents of the same
breed, whose offspring do not meet breed standards, or the
mating of Experimental animals may be entered in the
Experimental Register.
1. When both parents are in the Experimental Register.

2. When one parent is in the Experimental Register and
the other parent is in the Purebred or American
Register.

UNO. The rescue with one teat had the brown does.

The big brown doe had the quads.

Cleo triplets.

Molly (experimental out of storm from Emily) had the huge single. It's bigger than any of the others.

Hula was first with the triplets. One born dead.

After storm and tiki. The rest are bred to the big spotted purebred buck.
