First wooly litter born here!

First Wooly litter born here tonight!

Pointed white doe X Leapin's Black Prince(yes pedigree book is I believe still in the barn unless Cristina remembered it) 6 babies, 1 peanut. ALL blacks. Last litter had at least one himi as Laura kept him and I have him now. Hoping for nice and typey babies like dad!

Will be working on pics this weekend. Because of the stress of the move we have lost a few babies- it was a 6 hour drive basically for them, plus an overnight stay, then going to a new area that is much damper then the okanagan and warmer as well..

We have been feeding lots of hay, old fashioned rolled oats and they are all doing fine otherwise. I guess that is to be expected when moving 3-4 week old babies- very stressful! But disappointing none the less. Will be breeding a bunch of woolies in November : )
