Despite our continual monitoring in the last hours of her labor, Iris decided to have three new kids without our help. She delivered two does and a buck kid about 10 pm last night (April 17). The black doe with a white spot on her head will be named Ivy; the white doe, Lily; and the white buck, Walter.
Pictures include: Iris being a good mother; Lance attempting (not very successfully) to feed Walter a bottle while Iris and Lily look on in bewilderment; Heather holding Lily; and Heather holding Ivy.
