Going to be kidding for the first time!

Well on May 1st, Pickles has her babies.  Two big, healthy, bucklings!  Pickles was a great first time momma, and was very attentive and gentle with them.  It didn't take long for both bucklings to get up and start nursing.  Both are chamois, but one is really light and the other is darker but not quite ober red.  All my goats come from clean, closed herds so I am going to let her dam raise the babies with lots of human interaction.  Our two new oberhaslis are now weaned from the bottle, and are growing like weeds.  They are just over two months old.  They will make great additions to the herd, and I can't believe how long and tall the buck is.  Since his father is the sire of Pickles babies, I am thinking of keeping one of the bucklings for the pack string as it should be huge too.  We got Pickles from Dave two years ago, as we want to try our hand at making cheese.  Boy we sure are glad he sold us such a great doeling! While I was at it, I thought I would add a couple updates picks of Thor and the two new Kune Kune pigs
