Last Goat Kidded
« on: May 09, 2010, 02:01:34 pm »
Our last goat Paige kidded this morning - happy story so I'll tell. I've been keeping a very close eye, going to bed very late for 2 nights and very early mornings - at 5.30am she had a perfect little male (perfectly presented - thankgoodness) followed by a lovely little girl and not problems so our kidding season came to a happy close, really please it ended on a high after loosing a female kid about 4 weeks ago.

Thats great news.  I know how you feel, having lost two male kids this time.  Its such a relief to see live ones after that, and see that all is well.

They're lovely, and very similarly marked too.
