    Here's some pics of Our Nigerian doe that had 4 kidds on Jan. 1, 2011, they are all still living and healthy, she has done an excellent job of raising them. She is a good nanny and has raised 3 kidds twice before now. These were taken the day the kidds were born. Thanks for looking


    This one is named "Lace" because it looks like she has lace on her ears.

    Oh My! are they ever cute. I want one, but I know they grow up and aren't quite as cute later on. and I would have to learn how to milk one, as I think it would need to be contributing, not just being a yard ornament.

    They are sure adorable. I use to raise Fainting Goats and my favorite time was kidding time. I would go out and sit in the stall with the kids and let them climb all over me. Those little ones can melt your heart. I love the tri-colored doeling. But they all are just to sweet. I sure do miss not have kids anymore. Thanks for sharing yours. :stew1:

    Thanks!...It is unusual for them to have 4, but it does happen on occasion. Our nanny has had 3 twice before, the norm is 1-2.

    They are adorable. What kind of goats are they? Do you have them for milk?
