So Blessed is the Broodmare, err, Brooddoe Gemmy!
There is a horse book called Blessed are the Broodmares, whose title I was reminded of this week when lovely BBF's Gemstone kindled. She kindled a day early and who could blame her?! I've never had a HL doe kindle ELEVEN kits before. Two were not viable and there are probably a few peanut (double dwarf gene) babies in the remaining NINE. I fostered two suspected peanuts to the blue doe Cobweb to keep her singleton warm. The litter was so large that several individual kits appear small as would be expected, but may not be peanuts, just crowded for womb room. We will have to wait and see. The added bonus is that I have not had a litter from this particular buck for many months and wondered if I ever would again.
