So I have three does due anytime (they are on day 146 today). I go out and start a head count, don't see Dixie right off (not unusual, their hay is on the other side), then she steps around her big belly gone. I rush to the other side I look over the door only to see 3 dead kids, my heart sank, until I saw one lone survivor in the corner. I sure wasn't expecting quads out of her. I am very happy to have one atleast, but still can't believe I wasn't there to save the others. I do think they were born alive, and one or two may have even gotten up and nursed (one definately didn't). And to top it all off, they were all does!!
Anyway, here are pics of the survivor, I hope the others go soon, it's going to be hard not getting attached to this one.
One of her ears is abit mangled, don't know if the doe bit her or what.
