Do I offer him as a buck, or wether him.
NDs are not my thing, so, not sure.
If you want him, let me know.
He is friendly, as in jump in your lap, but Dam raised.
He will not take a bottle but loves weetbix, sultanas and fruit.
75%.
Dad is 100% ND, mum is ND x mini, so 50% and small.

This week we experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows with our kidding.
I am a true believer in following your gut, unfortunately, sometimes even gut instinct is not enough.
My gorgeous Scarlet, lost a buck kid, because I did not react fast enough and because her boy was so big. Fortunately her little doeling made it through OK, but Scarlet is not doing as well as she should be. My Fingers are crossed and with a little bit of luck and a lot of Veterinary Care, we might make it through this.
The high point of my week was the birth of my gorgeous 75%ND twins to our “lovely” Winnie. Winnie is an absolute treasure when in kid. In fact, I knew she was in kid because she let me pat her. The rest of the time she is an absolute witch with a B. She turns nasty the second she kids.
Today she did not leave my side. She snuggled, she smooched and she would not leave my side, until she brought her gorgeous twins into the world.
I think deep down she wants to love and be loved. Unfortunately, she forgets this very quickly.

My gorgeous Scarlet is only days away from kidding and is so big that she has trouble walking. I have no idea how she managed to get herself up on a garden bench.

I know I shouldn’t have a favourite, but I do.
Xochiquetzal became mine when her mum passed away after the C Section that saved Xochi and her sister Tiny. Xochi is my baby. I do try to hide my giggles when she pushes the grandkids out of the way to be with me.
Tiny didn’t make the grade because she whines too much.
Yesterday at 8.00am she was calling to me. I could not leave her side all day, without a complete meltdown.
So, I spent all day in the sun, other than the essential wee and coffee making breaks. Only sign of labor was mucus discharge and the usual digging and stretching.
Going by the normal indicators we could have had another 12 hours up our sleeve but, this is my baby and I knew things were not right.
Her mum died because I procrastinated, I wasn’t going to do it with her.
8.00 last night, my gut said intervene. Cervix was not dialating so her grunts and groans were not getting her anywhere.
8.30 she was in distress, so more assistance.
9.00 baby number one enters the world.
9.30 baby number two, feet only, head back but mum pushed her out before I could help.
The good news is, we have two beautiful little doelings, one happy mummy and an absolutely ecstatic goat granny.
Xochiquetzal is a silver grey. Dominant colour. One baby is identical. The Other is a silver grey with lavender and ginger.

Our new birthing suites are set up and the security camera is picking up movements and noise.
First is due in Thursday. Fingers crossed.
Not a single goat using their new beds.

Just how you want your Silky babies to behave, while being brushed. This boy is dam raised and as friendly as any kid we have raised. He is buck quality.
