Maternity Watch

Well, I was so disappointed to find Feisty back in heat again when I visited the barn this morning. Arghh! I was so hoping Shazam had bred her last month even though I didn't witness the breeding. Makes me wonder if Red Velvet is bred. She should be due next month but isn't very big. The vet tried to ultrasound her a month ago but she had never ultrasounded a goat before and couldn't tell me either way. I am debating removing Shazam from the pen, waiting a couple of weeks and then putting Feisty, Xplicit, and Velvet in with Megapixel. I will have to check the pedigrees to see if that would work. Anyway, I guess having my kids spread out from spring to fall wouldn't be such a bad idea.
On a brighter note, I'd like to share a couple of wonderful Holiday photos I received from my good friend Kristin at Babel Brook Acres.


I can't believe Kristin got Spark and Angelina to keep the antlers on!!!
