    For Casper while you groom him you should get a lick mat that can stick to the wall in front of him. Fill it with stuff he can lick off while grooming and he will learn to associate grooming with positive things and learn to stand at the same time

    I am so impressed how the plan you made of spacing out the births is actually working so well. It is fascinating to see the mama drama and how you are dealing with it. Genius move giving the mom the pain meds so help calm her down. This is so fun to watch. Thanks a bunch.

    • @ShiningSakura
      @ShiningSakura ปีที่แล้ว +23

      From a pet standpoint that is logical, from a breeding herd standpoint it doesn't make sense unless his genetics says he should stay. Almost every breeding has an adorable baby, but you cannot keep them all as pets.

      I don’t think they will since they don’t have a reason to keep it. They’re not going to keep him as a buck since he’s a runt and they don’t need to keep him as a companion goat

    • @silverdemonwolf426
      @silverdemonwolf426 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      What others have said, it doesn't make sense from a breeding standpoint to keep Newt. However, if Newt stays as sweet and friendly as he is while he grows, he could become a very good pet goat for someone or possibly even a therapy goat if he has the right personality and mind for it.

  • @ClayWinter1
    @ClayWinter1 ปีที่แล้ว +67

    Watching it, I was almost wondering if there was something underlying wrong with that doeling, and that’s why Daphne was acting that way towards it. Goats can sense when something is wrong with their babies, and will reject a kid sometimes. Even if it’s an invisible issue to humans. But I am glad that Daphne is doing better, and accepting it. Hope the rest of your deliveries go smoothly. Stay awesome. ❤️

    • @iris5678

      Sometimes when an animal is in pain, they take it out on something else they suddenly associate with the pain

    • @aurorarowley7310
      @aurorarowley7310 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      What iris5678 said. When sheep and goats have difficult births and are in pain, much like Daphne was, they will often associate their babies with that pain and as a result reject them. Sometimes helping them control the pain causes them to stop and accept their baby again, like in Daphne's case, and sometimes they simply will not accept them again. Generally if you see them letting the baby nurse after administering pain meds it means that the momma and baby will be fine together. It's not always that something is wrong with the baby.

I really love flower and tree names especially girls names : Poppy , Iris , Daffodil , Lily , Rose , Maple, Fleur, Aster , Bryony , Jasmine , boys names : Ash , Bruce , Adair , Cullen ,Koa , Lindley , Rowan , Birk , Jarrah . I hope these suggestions may be helpful cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

    I’m so excited that Daphne took her baby back. I agree with you Danelle, she was probably very stressed wondering how she was going to take care of three babies! This is such a testament to how critical you are with breeding only great goats and putting an emphasis on great personalities as well as the milking and show qualities. This was such a great video, and is so awesome to see how great Casper is going with training, and Newt getting bigger!! Much love to you guys from us here in Oklahoma 💗💗💗
