More babies
Awi (mini alpine ff) had twins yesterday, 1 buck 1 doe. She had the buck out before I got there, and he was HUGE! 7.4 lbs and I just taped her today at 80 lbs! So, she did good getting him out herself. His hind feet weren't even out yet, and I move him over, and out flopped the doeling's hind feet. She was easy to deliver, 4.5 lbs. Doeling is the broken chamoisee, buck is the cou blanc. The picture in the crate was taken by my daughter...pretty dang good for a 3 year old! Dandy (Nigerian ff) is in labor now.

Can I mention that these bring the count up to 10 bucks, 2 does born this year. Sigh. Hope the rest of my does have lots of girl babies brewing in there. Each kid that popped out of Dandy, I was literally like, "please, NO MORE BALLS!"...but she didn't listen...

I love the first one (Cou Blanc), great coloring. But I have to ask, is that a fried egg on the floor beneath him? Or maybe the photographer's play food? ;-)

Lol Clovers Clan, I had to go back and look. That sure looks to be a fried egg.

LOL! It is my daughter's plastic fried egg. That's what happens when you have a 3 year old; strange objects appear in photos.
