Welker, 1 years old
On December 4th, Welker turned 1 years old. He is doing excellent. He is with our other buck Brady full time and they have finally become buddies.
Welker weighs 80lbs. He is still a little on the small side in my opinion but he eats well and is growing every day. I also think its hard to judge just how much he has grown since he is always standing next to Brady who is a full year older than Welker, therefore much larger than him too.
We are in anticipation waiting for Welker's first kids to be born here. He bred Priscilla who is due January 21, 2013, these babies will be our first purebred Nubians born here. Also he bred Maddie, who is due January 29, 2013. We are really hoping for spotted babies but we will just have to wait and see.
For now Welker is doing wonderful. Walks on a lead and goes where ever I say without a fuss. He stands extremely well for hoof trimmings. He is friendly and loves to have attention.
Check back in a few months to see his babies.
