This will be our 1st early kidding. I usually start end of March. I don't plan on using heat lamps. I have a cam installed so I will make sure to be there for each birth and get everyone dried off as quick as possible.
Here is a picture of my Pebbles. One of the doelings I held onto from 2016 kids. She's a sweetie. But watch out she's a nose biter!

Quote: she is adorable! her nose is a heart! dehorned or pulled? I wish you were closer!! I dont know if our Percy is doing his job yet, so no clue when we will have kids from the two girls, I guess the first time its best to be warm out for all of us!

very nice, plecostomus should keep your tank even nicer yet with its scavengerness! They do grow quickly though I have only ever had one in the tank at time.

as have I!!!! he is HUGE!!! Him and 2 fancy goldfish-anything more is overkill for my tank. i think it's 40 gallons??

Thank you. She is dehorned

poor baby. I take them to the vet and have it done. All of my older does have horns. I like them and have had no problems. I started dehorning kids because around here no one wants goats with horns. How long have your girls been running with your buck? Do you have a website? I want to see some pics! lol

I am not sure this is a good prize..

Some how I picture the chicken dinner being:
7 kernels of corn,
7 kernels of oats
3 pieces of gravel
6 oyster shell pieces.
and for the main entrée 6 Meal worms!
