She was happy to lift... !

SO on a whim I put ------ (kids name) in with Big Boy.

She almost instantly presented and he tagged her twice---pleased with the result and totally shocked at how happy she was to see him.

Her kits are a month at this point...

That's great! Most of my does are still planting their fuzzy butts and whining.

Yay!
I wish that breeding would go that easy little more often!
Is she 30 days pregnant or are the kits 30 days old?

nz mom and nz dad

Dad has three litters now: one at farm (8) born two days ago, doe is Amer Chin/NZ

Two litters at home (6ea), other doe is rex mix.

I haven't figured images yet...

OUr other doe at home is due again in two weeks---cheeky guy got at her...

We have 24 does (most are jrs) 3 bucks (time will tell) and a smattering of ready fryers (next week they meet "mack the knive")...

Aiming for 100 does next summer (organic growth, I will only purchase a quality doe if she seems worthy at this poiint).
