Hernia

On Tuesday,our one kid who i have called "Bat ears" as she is an Anglo nubian x Alpine,had to have an operation as she had a hernia. It was an umbilical hernia as the naval had not closed properly after birth. She will be left with a bit of a lump but otherwise will be fine in the long term.
We are waiting for Snowdrop,our Anglo-nubian nannie to kid. She is 8 years old & is a really sweet girl. She was due today which is 150 days since service but can go another 5 without a problem.
We also have Annie due on the 10th.
The kids from Kenya who we lost with mastitis are doing really well; they like to go outside on the yard now for a run around.
Madelaine, the pygmy is huge & she is not due to kid for a long time. She does look really funny with two great saddles on her sides! She never has any problems kidding but quickly loses interest in the kids; i think she has had so many she gets bored!

This is Madelaine with one of her kids last year.
