Title: new borns
Post by: tizaala on March 10, 2011, 12:58:00 pm

After a week of sleep deprivation and false alarms we delivered our first pedigree British Sarnens under our own affix ( Silversun ) last night, had to help out a little as they were nose first deliveries , had to fish around for the front legs but all ok in the end. Twin females  nice and healthy and strong, on their feet and drinking within the first couple of minutes , couldn't ask for more.
