Just for fun, have you had a buck year or a doe year? I have 3 bred does and am waiting for my kids. I bred fewer does and bred them later, but am getting anxious now. Just wondering what the percentages have been for bucklings and doelings born this spring on the forum  |

Um I'd have to say at this point with 4 done, and 10 to go... BUCK year!
8 bucks to 2 doelings, and I think they were an after thought.

If the flippin' does would kid, I could tell you! I wish for buck years! I am with Roseanna, easier to cull, plus buck years make it a little easier to sell does. |

So far, a buck year, overwhelmingly.
Eleanor is our only doeling. We have 3 live bucklings, and the one that died was a buck too (TG it wasn't a doe!).
We have 2 left to kid in mid-late April. I am hoping for girls out of them, too, especially if they are even half as awesome as Eleanor (awesome sundgau coloration, great bones, and phenomenal udder/production genes).
