We Struggled on This Pull!! Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goat Birth

[@BlueCactusDairyGoats]

You did great :)

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

YOU girl are the only reason I have had confidence enough to do this! Thanks so much for all you do!

Hey Crystal

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Upon editing the video I am wondering a few things: Was baby #1 really both legs back? it almost appears as if he does emerge with 1 hoof forward but slightly back, maybe he was in an "elbow lock" position? I also wonder if he was tangled up a little with his sister and in pulling him out, she got her front leg caught up with him and created a tangle of a situation that way? I'm glad it worked out either way! Mama and babies are doing excellent!!

[@chickensandapug326]

Just now had time to sit down and watch. Poor mama my heart went out to her, you did great! Lucky woman a blue eyed, moon spotted, polled baby girl very lucky indeed 😍🐐 will see if the last doe due this month has me a blue eyed baby then we'll get everything figured out

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

I'm about to go down and check her ligaments! Really excited to see what she has!!

[@christina5kids16grands]

I love when the mommies talk to the babies. It's my favorite part.

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Me too! ♥♥

[@cindyboard7816]

You and mama did great!!!! So awesome that both babies came out healthy and strong! I can't wait for you to share more video of the babies once they are hopping and bouncing around!! You sure hit the jackpot on the little doe!!! Might I suggest Treasure as a name? Thanks for sharing your homestead with us!!! Stay safe!!!

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Thanks so much! We have kind of a dark disaster type theme going on with the goats born here or bought recently, and her name is Sage and Stone Wayward Tempest. I already registered her online 🤣😍🐐

[@cindyboard7816]

@@SageandStoneHomestead That is an awesome name!!

Loved watching the video. Very impressed at how you were in control of the situation. Congratulations on the new additions to your farm. God bless you and your family. God is great

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Thank you so much!!

[@merryanneadair4451]

Gorgeous babies!! Your girls are so blessed to be able to experience this!! Congratulations on 2 beautiful new kids! Love that puller; always hope to never have to use it, but certainly thankful to have it when needed!!! God bless!!

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

I thought I was going to have to use it but once I got her turned the right way mama pushed her very far into the canal and I knew she was good after that! 😍

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Do either you or your daughter have experience that shows that mamas who have a kid with their head turned back keep doing that with each kidding? I'm giving her a 3rd chance after a full year of healing before breeding, but I feel bad breeding her more if it's going to be hard on her each time.

[@merryanneadair4451]

@@SageandStoneHomestead sadly yes...... We've both experienced it. The best doe I've ever had, EVERY year her first kid would come out head only. Her 4th freshening I was at work & not there to help. 😢 She seems strong & healthy, as long as you can be there to help her, I think she will be OK. And she might totally surprise you her next freshening!!

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

I'm hoping next time things go much smoother for her!

[@merryanneadair4451]

@@SageandStoneHomestead in the video I saw you offer her water after kidding. We ALWAYS offer warm water with a splash of apple cider vinegar in it. It helps them pass the afterbirth, helps with letting milk down & seems to just help their whole system recover easier. They always seem very thankful for it! 😉

[@juliannedispain1637]

Baby giraffe🤣❤️ So happy she is healthy and had two healthy babies!

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Thanks me too! Last year was so sad for her. I'm glad she has redemption!

[@BrooklandsHoneyBees]

That was amazing to watch! Thank you so much for sharing that with us

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Yeah you bet! Babies doing well!

If you are interested in the (sad) story of Baerli's first birth, I'll link it here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGHJeX6JmKeAatU

[@elainehinton2860]

Your videos impress me, but also intimidate me as a new Nigerian goat owner … what have I gotten myself into?! Lol

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

TRY not to let Baerli shape your expectations of your own goats! Things go right much more frequently than they go wrong for sure!!♡♡

[@MstresVampy]

U do such a great job .. so proud of u guys. I'm so glad this channel was dropped on my suggested a few months ago.. Edit: only thing maybeee is molasses warm water

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Yes that's a great thing to give mamas after birth! I had one mama get diarrhea after birth and it was suggested maybe I put too much in her water. Oops!

[@nolliesteers3083]

They are so beautiful. 😍

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Thanks so much! Truly bundles of joy! Hopping around the barn today. I have to get video!

[@MrHiggsrocks]

Great Job, good save

Thanks!! 😍😍🐐🐐🐐

[@jessicakarynecoosey7778]

So encouraging to see a good outcome of a similarly bad situation! Yay, for more pretty kids! (Not that I've ever seen an ugly one 😅)

Of course

[@haleycagle8897]

When I catch my does in labor I walk them around unless their already starting to heavily contract I haven’t had a problem from my does in 5 years as in the fist 2 years I had around 4 does each year that kidded 3 in which each had problems that all resulted in death… in the kids

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Oh I'm so sorry! That's so sad. So far this has been an uncomplicated kidding season.! The walking is good advice. Humans are told to walk to get things moving too! I say uncomplicated but this particular kidding was decently complicated. But it worked out well!

[@michellebastin5286]

Beautiful 😘🥰
