Finally
9 am they finally arrived. 52 hrs after lute. 
Oh well, at least they're cute.  First is a littler chamoisee doeling, black trim for the most part with a little bit of cream trim on legs/butt I believe.
Second was the biggest, the buckling (that I wanted!). Very light Cou clair or Cou Blanc... gonna have to get him into the light. For now, too cold. Can't wait to see how he looks, hoping he's the buckling of my dreams. :P
Third was the bigger doeling. She's chamoisee too, but with LOTS more cream on face, legs. She even has a couple white spots on her black dorsal stripe, lol.
All have wattles like momma.
Now I gotta decide which one I don't need to keep. I'll probably keep one girl and the boy. Anybody need a French Alpine out of SG parents? Dam is SG Grace-Hill Magnolia, sire is SG Sunshine Rehma Reprise. (AI breeding)
Firstborn doeling - she's got more black on her
2ndborn is the cou blanc buckling, then the chamoisee doeling (with lots more white on feet and face)

Boring, fast labor once she got down to it. I couldn't keep up with drying. Took her long enough to finally let 'em out though... :P

Hmm... need names. I've always liked the name Jack, so maybe for the boy I could name him Jack Frost in honor of the coldest danged winter ever.
Doelings... Maybe one could be "Frozen Toes" and the other could be "Summer Dreams" LMAO. No seriously, I could use help with the doelings.

What about Elsa and Anna for the girls? That is the name of the Queen and Princess (sisters) from Frozen and it seems to fit the theme of that weather you are having .
They are BEAUTIFUL by the way and I am so glad your doe had them fine .

How nice of her to only give you the one buck you asked for and have the others be does.  Do you think they were worth the wait?

I didn't see this updated post & posted an update on your behalf on your other thread Dona, hope you don't mind.
I like Jack Frost for the buckling & seems like the sisters should follow this winter theme also. Now to come up with some catchy names?

I would be picking names from the lyrics of 'California Dreaming' by the Mamas and the Papas. But then again I am a huge Mama Cass fan.
