A mini 'Della'
« on: April 29, 2012, 01:30:06 pm »
Some of you may remember me being totally distraught over the sad loss of my lovely 'Della' in March last year.   However, I am delighted to report that a 'daughter' of Della's that I'd kept back 2 years ago has kidded for the first time this year and although she is brown and my buck is a black and white mottled, she has thrown a perfect little jet black/snow storm eared mini 'Della'.   We have taken some photos but not yet ready to upload.  She also had a male kid who is also jet black apart from a white band under his belly - bless him.     

Kidding now finished for this year and although I ended up with twice as many males as females (all of whom have lovely homes), this last kidding has made my 'kidding year'  :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :wave:
