If you have been following for very long, You know about the Nubian mix Doe I purchased last year and named Fernie. Poor Fernie was in bad shape. She was in milk from giving birth about 3 months before my purchase and very thin. Way TOO THIN! She was so wormy, she came down with a bout of bottle jaw. A much appreciated Roseanna to the Rescue!
Fernie went home with her where she was tended to and and on her way to a wonderful recovery. Having no idea Fernie would go into heat the second she smelled The Nubian buck, Well, Fernie gave us all a surprise and invited him over...
I received a phone call from Roseanna late yesterday afternoon. Fernie was finally giving birth (at 154 days) and as we spoke she was drying off a baby.
~Fernie in Labor~
So now a very good mother to a buckling and a bottle fed doeling!
The plans have not been finalized for when I get to pick her up and if the buckling will be left at her side. Waiting for another doe to give birth down there which will determine all of it.
But soon, Fernie will be back home with us. So YAY! Fernie will come back to us!
On a different note, the bee man will be here this afternoon and the UPS guy with our Starks Bros. order.
So much happening in the next 24 hours to share with all of you.
So until then, enjoy the pics of Fernie and her babies (above) courtesy of Roseanna!
Sweet dreams,
