Japanzy kidded on Saturday, March 9th with an adorable little doeling we've nicknamed "Kimmie" in honor of the veterinarian who helped her into this world. Kimmie is a black and white, blue eyed doeling. She weighed 3.8 lbs. at birth.
Kimmie had a twin who died sometime before birth. The stillborn twin was seriously holding up the birth process, and was tangled up with the live twin trying to be born. I couldn't untangle them so we made a trip to the vet. Little Kimmie came out breech but pretty easily. The twin was coming out front feet first, head wrapped over her back. We had a long struggle getting that kid out, and it wasn't pretty to say the least! Japanzy is hopefully recovering, but she's sore and moving slow. She's on antibiotics to prevent a uterine infection now, and I hope she makes a full recovery. She's such a great mother, and a great milk maker too!

Kimmie already has a sale pending!
