ended the season on a high note

We were drying off the swarthy buckling ff Percy had just delivered when I heard my DD say in a meek voice, "Um, Mom... there's another one coming." I don't know how she crammed them both in, but twins! So we have topped off the season with a beautiful white doeling with a blue roan stripe down the back. I've never seen a goat with markings quite like it. Happy day, babies bouncing around everywhere and the promise of undisturbed sleep!

Yes, Skywalker/Cherry Cuddler buckling from fall 2013. I think the little girl picked up the blue genes from Skywalker. Its just interesting the white masked any red but the blue slipped through loud and clear. Gotta love genetics. Pics are of sire(red/black) and sire's sire(blue roan) and sire's dam(red/black)
