Here are the girls eating lunch - they only get fed once a day in winter, half a bucket of apple pomace (left over from pressing cider, we get it from a local cider mill) and a cup of bran (actually also leftovers, we get from a local flour mill) each. Thirteen still does not share well, so I feed them in two places and it kinda works like musical chairs with most times Thirteen ending up with two places! So sometimes I grab her collar and hook her on for 15 minutes or so - she can eat but not move places - and that settles her down for a couple days or so.
5 more weeks and Gazelle is due!
It will be her first kid(s); she's about as tall as the adult does now and getting wider every day - it's so neat, we've had her since she was a few weeks old, and now she'll have her own babies!
