I'm enjoying reading about your goat-breeding hijinks, free!
Dixie's next heat should be in a couple more weeks, which puts her delivery after my busy time at work. I simply can't leave DH to deliver a few kids by himself while I work overtime, even if he were willing.
I don't think I am going to breed Umbra this time around, she still seems so small & young, at least compared with her mom. She's almost 9 months old, I don't think she's had a heat yet. Now if she happens to go into a late heat this winter, or comes into heat when mom comes back smelling like buck we'll see.
AAARRRGH!!! Thanks a lot! Let's hear it for the boy! Let's hear it for the man!!!
Maybe hes no romeo
But hes my lovin one man show
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Lets hear it for the boy
I used to have a pygmy buck. He had no problem nailing the big does - I often thought he grew wings when he escaped his pen. Nubian, Saanen, Togg......he managed to get them all, if the opportunity arose,
I expect Zilli to come into heat in about two weeks. Now it turns out I will probably be in surgery at that very time and I have no one who can get her to the AI gal for me..
Hopefully she will have another heat after that; the woman who is doing the AI says sometimes the LaManchas have short breeding seasons.
