They're so cute too! I had expected one or two to look like "dad" with his beautiful white coat and soft orange spots but we have four! I had also thought that the majority would look like mom and just be a bland soft grey. This is what we really have:Four like Peter, one grey and brown marbled, one black and brown tiger striped, one jet black, and one black and brown marbled
How on earth am I supposed to turn something sooo cute into meat?? (okay...not getting attached not getting attached)
In other news...Ellie still has not had her kids (she was due on Monday) but there's hope on the horizon...she is "bagging up" really bad today and I can no longer feel her tail ligaments. Maybe in the next 12 hours??? Hopefully....
Below is the back view from the 15th:

Oh my word! She's HUGE! That is like Stuffin was on the day she gave birth. Overnight, her udder took on never-before-seen proportions. I would be ready!!
That is a huge udder! What type of goat is she?
She's a Nubian, and she's strutting around hollowed out and ready to go and contentedly chewing her cud while I'm anxiously doing things around the house and constantly checking on her ugggg!
I knew she was a Nubian since we have 2 ourselves but we raise Mini-Nubians.
I don't think I've ever seen baby bunnies before! They're so tiny!!!
I know next to nothing about goats having babies, but I have to agree, her udder is huge!
Wow - what a variety of bunnies! I sure hope my doe is preggo and that we have bunnies in a couple of weeks! I know it's hard to think food when they are that little- but by the time we are ready to wean and cull - Im betting there will be more bunnies to "oh and awww" over!:)
