“I Can Do It All By Myself” Says Nigerian Dwarf Mom!

Mama goat and three babies

Yesterday, we returned from Church to find that Pepper had given birth to three beautiful doe kids.  We knew she was getting close, but to our surprise, Pepper proudly presented her three cute little ones all cleaned off, dry and full of life.  GCH Waterloo Pond RCT White Pepper 4*M is our finished champion, queen of the herd, Nigerian Dwarf Goat, but this day she proved to be a champion mom!

This is the fifth freshening for Pepper, so she is not a new mother, but it is always amazing to see how she knows just what to do to take care of her little ones.  Bezoar, our other finished champion, was first to kid this season, and we could see that Pepper had a look of longing in her eyes as the other kids made the entrance into the barn.  Now Pepper can proudly display her own little babies.

White Pepper is bred to CH Wild Wind Farm Epic, in our first finished champion doe and finished champion buck match.  This is our first year that Epic is at our farm, and he is from a long proven bucks and genetics from Old Mountain Farm.  Pepper’s finished LA score is EEEE – 91.

We will be retaining one doe, but the other two does will be available for sale.  Next in line to have babies will be Coriander.
