Benson and Bluebelle

 Lu had triplets on Saturday! Unfortunately, the last one, a buckling, was born dead. The other two are doing great though! The buckling is named Benson, and the doeling, Bluebelle. All the kids were 5.8#-the smallest kids we've had other than pygmies.

Benson has a parrot mouth, or underbite. Below is Bluebelle's muzzle with her lips lining up nicely. 

 

His lips, on the other hand, do not do so. Sometimes the kids have trouble/can't nurse, and have to be put down. He eats fine though. As you can see in the picture, he gets a pretty good milk beard and other stuff sticks onto it but who cares about that, right?

  1. Very pretty kids!

    Benson's parrot mouth doesn't look too bad, not like some I've seen.
