17 kids born!

We had 17 goat kids born on Double D Ranch this year kidding season. I have sold everyone except one buckling, and have even sold 2 does. It seems the mini Nubians are just so darn popular. I had lovely kids and the girls are giving lots of creamy milk. I am making soap, feta, chevre, and cheddar cheese almost every day- oh yes, and gallons of raw milk kefir...and of course there's the beautiful mason jars of rich milk in the fridge just to drink. Love it!

As soon as I have some free time I'll post pictures of the girls and some of the kids they had. I'll  include the bucks, and announce the new 5th generation mini Nubian buck coming to live here soon.

1st Generation Mini Nubian Triplets

Gina kidded her first time yesterday and she did well! Triplet kids from Handsome Rob. That makes these little charmers 1st Generation with LONG ears! Hooray! Can you tell I am really happy about that?

The 1st picture is the little girl. She mews like a kitten and is nigerian sized. The other kids is the red and white, bald faced boy. Super cute. He has one funky ear, that turns out a bit. He should make a very nice pet.

 Then there is the little darlin' down below. He is gorgeous and would make a nice herd sire in a mini program. Maybe mine, if I don't get a buckling from Penelope, who is 1st gen. with long ears and bred to a 3rd gen. moon spotted boy.

Another Set of Triplets!

My very best girl Luci gave birth to triplets on my anniversary! How sweet is that? Last year she gave me two lovely doe kids on my birthday.

Two doelings and a buckling and....ALL WITH BLUE EYES! How amazing! Thank you Blackberry! I love that little buck. He always passes on at least one set of blue eyes in a kidding, but this time all of them!

These are 1st generation mini Nubians.
