Well, all 14 of mine are due within 3 days of each other - 7 on Tuesday (3/23) and 7 on Thursday (3/25)! Then I have a few in July. I'm hoping for about a 60% doe/40% buck ratio. I have 15 doelings sold and 11 bucklings. Plus I want to keep a few doelings and a buckling. |

A buck year here. 6 bucks, 2 does. I had one more that I thought would kid but hasn't, so I guess that means I'm done.

We had a buck year last year. For the most part, doe buck ratio will be about 50 50.
We are hoping for a fair amount of does this year to make up for last year.
Our December kiddings from 4 does were 5 bucks and 4 does.

No kids yet, but I am hoping for a 50/50 year! I just put a deposit on a very nice Nubian buckling frm a CAE negative herd who practices CAE prevention. I had ceased registering my herd and upgrading due to finances. I finally decided to start upgrading and all, so I took the plunge and got the best I could afford. So, since I am going for quality and herd building again, I will need to do the CAE program. Last I tested, they were all Cae neg, but that was several years ago and I've added a couple of rescues since then. Now I need to start all over. I want to pull any does and bottle them and keep the bucklings on the does (all grades anyway). If I had 50/50, the does would be happy with kids to raise and I would be happy with does to bottle and be able to certify CAE negative when they get older.
Last year I had 1 buckling and 8 does.
