Here is the first calf of our 2010 year. Nice little bull calf out of a 6 year old cow. He weight 88lbs.

First kids born on my farm ever! We were hoping to keep at least one.

Triplet bucklings born on valentines day, at least they are sold already to a petting zoo! I thought for sure they would end up on somebodies table!

Awww, I love the last one.

My husband was so mean the other day. We'd just got back from the hospital and I asked if he'd go and check on my doe before I hobbled inside, so that I wouldn't have to hobble back out again. He came back to the truck and told me she had had three

Still nothing today....

We've had 3 does kid so far. The 1st gave us triplets, the second twins, and a single with our 1st time momma. There are still 4 more to kid. I have another one that is due in a couple of weeks that usually has triplets.

It looks like tonight might be the night. Dot has been pawing the ground and quite restless since about 3.30pm. She's turned into an eating machine too, she reminds me of the 'Hunger' character from the Weight Watchers advertisements!

False alarm

She is playing with you but you will forgive her when you see the babies!

Cara - your girls are gorgeous! I'm here in the Texas Panhandle and have been looking for some nubians or kinders to add to my herd. You said something about picking out a new doe at the dairy?
