10/3/2010 3 Comments Twins for Mystery & Rio on day 149Finally after days of waiting Mystery had an uneventful kidding shortly after 2pm this afternoon. The tri-colored doe kid was born first and was quickly followed by her brother. She weighed in at 3.25lbs and her brother at 3.5 lbs. Mother and kids are all doing well. No names have been selected yet. But the children want to name the male "George" as in Curious George because as soon as he was done nursing he set off to explore the kidding stall. I want to name him after a river in Oregon to incorporate his sire'sname influence. The little doe kid will probably be named after a mystery writer and right now I am considering calling her Agatha Christie. Note: It turns out that the kid I thought was a doe, is actually a buck kid and is now named Willamette, and his brother is being called Columbia George.
