We’re excited to share the birth of our very first Nigora kids — a buckling and a doeling from Bitsy and Chester!
This was an unexpected pairing. We hadn’t planned to breed Bitsy this year — she’s mature but very small, and also a farm favorite. When she suddenly developed an udder, we were surprised and concerned. A vet visit and x-ray confirmed she was, indeed, expecting. From there, it was a waiting game — full of nerves and lots of watchful care.
When the day came, Bitsy needed a little assistance during labor, but she delivered two healthy, beautiful babies. She’s proven to be an absolutely incredible mother — attentive, gentle, and so proud.
We’re thrilled to welcome Gidget and Gilligan, two tiny, playful bundles of joy who mark the beginning of our Nigora program here at Frisky Goat Ranch.
