Mapleshade’s Twins

Mapleshade delivered buck/doe twins on Saturday morning, February 24th.  The doeling was giving her first-time mom problems by trying to come into the world with her head tilted sideways. Poor Maple was doing her best but we finally had to push the girl back inside enough to re-position her head and then she came out okay with just a little traction.  After that her smaller brother entered the world with much less drama.  We are planning to retain a Xylo daugher this year, so we won’t be offering this girl for sale until all of the does bred to Xylo have kidded.
