So I was able to move a lot of cull goats earlier this year due to Melissa Swartz bugging the crap out of me to get them advertised. She then said this, so I had Cheri Peraino make us matching shirts šŸ˜‚

Almar Acres Painted Lady before and after kidding!

She’ll always be bulged out due to the sextuplets she had for her owner in 2025. Girlish figure GONE.

As much fun as a basket of kittens! We were replacing the p*e pads in their pen. The little stink-monsters are going out to a barn pen today, with a heat lamp of course. They are eagerly attacking the bottle, and my hand, and each other, at feeding time.

Linden’s daughter Sandbar Willow is a vacuum cleaner. No matter how I try to keep her out of the milk room she darts in and squeezes under the stand so I can’t catch her, then proceeds to Hoover up all the grain and pellets the sloppy does drop.

Almar Acres Painted Lady, bred AI to Winning Streak CM Molded Rose, kidded yesterday during daylight hours (thank you Lady). This is the same breeding that, 4 years ago, produced GCH Almar Acres La Vie en Rose owned by Itrek Acres, and our own Almar Acres Soiled Dove (2 grands and 4 reserve grands). Ultrasound looked like two and she delivered a buck and a doe in textbook fashion, so I heaved a big sigh and said well I’m glad that went so well.

I should have known better.

After about 15 minutes she started pushing again but nothing was happening so I went in and found a tightly balled-up kid. Finally located a leg — hind, upside down šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø. However I was able to get him out with that.

Then again, a little while later… ANOTHER balled-up kid. This time all I could pry up was the head, but Lady’s pelvis is big as a house and this was a tiny kid so she easily slid out head first.

So two does and two bucks and all are eating well (I pulled them all and am bottle feeding) and not injured from my ham handed birthing assistance.

Photos later.
#1 dark chamoise/buckskin combo buck
#2 chamoisee with extensive white doe
#3 gold buck with gobs of moonspots
#4 dark chocolate doe

Can’t tell right now if the other three are moonspotted, they may show up later.

And that’s a wrap for kidding season this year. Thank goodness. Stick a fork in me, I’m done.
