CBF Nigerians First Babies of 2009

Here is Narnis cleaning off the little girl slightly after birth. She is such a good mommy. She had a bit of trouble trying to push out that giant boy = He's HUGE.
He's the one laying there to the left that is mostly white. He looks just like a Boer to me. If I didn't know better I'd say he was full but I'm sure a Boer breeder would know right away

Here is the little doe - she's a hoot - she has one floppy ear like the Boer and one "erect" ear like her momma the Alpine - she also has brown on her rear - like she got a pair of pants on!!!

Close up of the doe's face - she's so cute. Alyssa named her Theaerah (I do not come up with these names and I probably spelled it WRONG!)

Here is little boy - He's big and hungry all the time and boy is he strong. I was feeling him and his shoulders and chest are HUGE. I think he'll make a nice first time meat goat for Nik - yes, Nik named him but darn, I can't remember and he's asleep.

Welcome our Newest Herd member.

My kiddos decided to do something different this coming year in 4H. Meat Goats. So I called my friend at SbarH Dairy Goats who I knew was crossing some of her Alpines to a Boer buck to find out what she might have available in the spring. After talking for a while she made me an offer I could NOT refuse.

Pearl Valley Laredo Narnia (Pearl Valley Yreka Laredo *B X Pearl Valley SDHB Nivasha 8*M) pregnant to her Boer buck. Not only is she a lovely little Alpine doe she is a Jr. Champion from some wonderful bloodlines and from a CAE Neg. Herd raised on CAE prevention. We weren't sure this is what we wanted but now that Narnia has been with us for 2 days, well, we are pretty convinced we were BLESSED!!!!!!

Yep, Narnia is fitting in fine here at CBF Nigerians. We hope she throws us a couple of twin Boer crosses for the kids to show and Kathy told us she is a very nice and easy milker. So, welcome Miss Narnia, we are glad you are here. Thank you so much Carl, Kathy and Jean!!!!
