My first and maybe only Alpine doeling for 2014. I have one more chance in June. She was born March 20, 2014 and caused us some problems. Her feet were out but it turns out that her head was tucked under. Had to push her back in and get her head up right. When doing this we heard a loud pop and thought we had broken the kid's neck. No she was fine but Xona is not so good. The pop was her hip. She is getting up and down and can walk but she sure has a swollen stifle. She is eating well but I have to milk her on the ground and she is a big producer. Second one born was a buck and he too had to be rearranged to be born. Bad kids. Causing us all kinds of worries. Both kids will be retained.
