Long awaited New arrival

Here is my new doeling which arrived yesterday afternoon after a long wait. She is feeding well thanks to Anke's advice of bottle feeding first colostrum.

Wow, that's quite a bit overdue... but not enough to say she got caught 3 weeks later...

Mum is 75% so that makes baby 87% I think. Is it normal for the belly still to be huge? She looks just as pregnant as before.


I still can't believe how tiny they are but lovely and silky soft.

If mum is 75% Baby will be 87 1/2 %  thats the same as Lilly , we are hoping for females off her so we can keep them as she was put to a topknot billy.
I take it yours are registered ?
Cant wait for our lot to start popping
