At 11:00 am this morning, Strawberry blessed us with a single buckling. He is healthy and gorgeous! He resembles his sire with the exception of having several moonspots including one large one on his face.
Both momma and son are doing great. It was an extremely easy birth, and Strawberry did wonderful. Strawberry wanted to give birth outside, as when we left her out this morning to feed with the herd, she had other plans. She drifted away from the rest and went down into the woods. We followed her and found her lying down starting to labor. So we brought her back up to the kidding barn where she quickly began to proceed into delivery. Within moments we were blessed with this gorgeous boy!
Now we are excited to see what is upcoming from the other does due to kid at any moment. Lets hope for some doelings!!!
