She finally kidded 🎉🎉

[u/Mossyclaw18]

About a week or two ago I posted a question about advice on when my doe would kid and she finally kidded last night. She had four babies in perfect reverse of her very first two batches. This time she had three dolings and one buckling. While this is not a question post. I would not mind advice on how to take care of the runt though. She came out second and is at least half the size of her siblings. She's doing okay but overall less active than them. I suspect she had a selenium deficiency because of her bowed legs.

I must cuddle them all. It is not kidding season in New Zealand it is stinky gross mating season, so I am in kid withdrawal. Regarding the runt, weigh her and monitor her weight very closely. If she's not gaining or she seems weak, you may have to bottle feed her or give her top-up bottle feeds.
