QUINTUPLETS!!! :banghead:
We've never had more than trips, and do we get to ease into multiples with quads? NO, we get outright quints!!!
The mom is our lovely JAGS female Jelo, and dad is a male bred by us, Renoir. He is desperately trying to outdo his dad in production - I think he's pretty much succeeded!
At around 7am, mom woke up and didn't see anything. Jelo took her morning shredded wheat and everything. I woke up at 8:30 to find 2 males. There were definitely more in there. I went downstairs to check my mail and came back up - another male! (Grr to the males!). Went to take a shower got back and guess what...a fourth male. What have I done to deserve all these males!? So I feel her belly and...I think there is another one in there. At this point I'm laughing hysterically. Jelo has a huge contraction - in which she FLIPS over bum-over-head, then uprights herself, one more push and a fifth kit pops out. I grab it and flip it over...
HALLELUJAH! It's a girl!
So 4 boys, 1 girl - all doing fantastically so far. I've got two separated out, the female is a little witch. Going to try to rotate them. Unfortunately this happens right before the show and we can't pawn 5 babies off to someone so they will all probably be coming with us to Auburn!
I guess I need to make it more clear that I'm JOKING when I say she looked big enough to have at least 4...that'll teach me!
And a picture for proof:
