Well done massively for getting her to this point, so nice to think that there is an end to the illness for her and she has 3 (!) lovely babies!

Do you know how many girls/boys yet?

first was a girl then 2 boys.  If I can I am going to TRY to put the strongest on one of the goats who is due a single - but worried that the mum will miss her - how long have I got to do this - a few days?

I suppose it would depend on when she kids, being a goat she'll hang on till it's too late anyway :)

Thank you all for the messages.  All is well, kids are really well and so is the mum after her Twin lamb disease.

The goats are all Boer crosses
