Response to (Goat kids) Triplets! Now what?

from Bernice (geminigoats@yahoo.com)
Hi Monica,

Congrats on your triplets. most goats should have the ability to rear triplets, however, there are some who don not have enough milk. i would keep an eye on them. Check their bellies to see if they are full. if not then you may need to supplement with a bottle. We had a sanaan a few years back that had triplets and since she was a heavy milker was able to take care of all 3. I'd wait a bit before putting all in the pasture, you can put mom back in a few days if you want to put the kids in a kid pen or leave in the stable. Good luck.

Bernice
