It is beginning to sound like a broken record around here this kidding season... yes, we had another doe freshen... yes, we got another buck kid! Wylie freshened around noon today. One of our neighbors checked the goats today while Laura was at work. At noon she called Laura to say that one kid was out. So, Laura raced home... thinking that another kid would be on the way. After all, this is an experienced 4 year old, who has always had twins. She is pushing 200 pounds, and getting more uncomfortable by the day. She had to have at least twins, if not triplets. NOPE! One big buck kid. He was so big, that we decided to weigh him... eight pounds! Eight pounds for one Nubian baby is pretty large!
We waited and waited for 2 hours hoping that another kid would arrive, but no luck there. Guess we need to be happy that we have a healthy kid and healthy mama. And, the sun is shining.
