New Baby reindeer to my herd

Gandolf is truly magnificent!
Praying for safe and successful births of new precious babies.

 

Thank you Karen, will keep watching to hear about the herd and what is happening there!

 

Turning grey here, two girls have VERY full udders, one for at least 10 days the other about 7. I have been on high alert for over a week but they are all quietly chewing their cud, so who knows when the first calf arrives. I had been expecting last week BUT it must be in the next couple of days!!

 

I think the girls are just messing with you! lol They will probably have them when you least expect it! Good luck! I just noticed there is a "Full Moon" on
Tuesday the 27th maybe they will be born then!

 

Hi Karen I was sure you would have a baby arrive today on the 19th.
I guess the most important think is to be Blessed with healthy babies and Mom's.

Still no babies despite high alert.
Gandalf's antlers are beyond any other UK reindeer. Frodo, my other bull and two years older has 6" of growth. Not looking forward to Gandalf's rut in September as those antlers grow at close to an inch an day at this time of year!

 

Gandalf is so handsome and healthy! As he looks at you with so much appreciation for your excellent care. Thank goodness you rescued him!!!!
Praying for safe births this Spring.....and an uneventful rut this Fall.

 

He looks amazing! Hope you have the fences well reinforced.

 

He certainly is a very handsome young man, and those antlers are amazing!

 

Frodo and Gandalf are both reindeer who have thrived with the good care but most of all the love Karen has given them! It is
scary to think of what Gandalf's antlers will look like in a few months! Brookeham is right as we all want A Spring of happy,
healthy, mothers and babies. And for sure a safe rut for both humans and the girls who are in the same pen with the male reindeer!

 

Sorry folks for lack of posts.
I have been on "high Alert" for calves. Lexi has been "bagged up" for 2 weeks, so round the clock watch.
I was absolutely convinced she would calf last night, so I camped out in fields but she made me wait until this afternoon. BUT my first has arrived.

"Finally a big bouncing baby boy to Lexi (6.4kg), she made me wait until two hours ago.
He's dark grey with blue eyes, white spotty nose (yeah), a white teardrop and white star.
Better pictures when he's fully dried."

 

OMG Karen Congratulations to all! Looks to be a healthy beautiful baby boy! Thanks for sharing the good news!

 

Congratulations to Lexi and you on the beautiful baby boy!!!! He's adorable!!!!

 

What a sweetheart! Can't wait to see more photos of him - and eagerly waiting for more babies!

 

Is Gandalf or Frodo the dad?

 

Congratulations to Lexi, he looks a gorgeous baby boy.

 

Congratulations! One down and how many to go? Hope all are safe and healthy on your farm!

 

He's a Gandalf son and here he is all dried out.
Lovely strong boy, not at all worried about him.
