Pebbles has gone from possibly bred to definitely bred to waistline the size of the Equator in the last month. Meanwhile Jammies who has fooled the farmer the last two years by pretending to settle has just hit the trifecta by coming into heat four months after being "successfully" "at last" bred in October. "Ok that's fine," said the farmer, "Jinxy is bred, anyway."
Jinxy is Jammies' daughter and equally as cosseted.
"Isn't she?" the farmer asked, looking at Jinxy suspiciously. Jinxy was bred at the same time as her mother and, like her mother, hasn't been in heat since, and has been eating for at least three.
"Jinxy?" asked the farmer, and Jinxy turned slowly with sad mini-mancha eyes and blinked a message: bring me some peanuts in the shell, I need them right away, which the farmer interpreted to mean, of course I am bred.
We shall see what we shall see.
Anyway the farmer trundled Pebbles up to the barn and she was coppered and seleniumed and given a thorough going-over and the results were that she is hatching out a platoon of majorettes from the way they all were kicking.
The farmer took a tape measure and put it around the Equator and blinked in surprise and then put the tape measure away and told Pebbles, "that information will not be published because it could be retweeted out of context. "
Pebbles lumbered off back to the pasture looking like something from the Macy's Parade.

If the dad is normal size, won't the baby likely be larger than if the dad was also small like Pebbles? I don't know, I'm asking ... and yes, I know, no one is as small as Pebbles.
I keep thinking of ladies under 5' who marry these big tall guys...
OMG ~ so exciting! =)
Dear Anonymous I think you might be thinking about Crumpet, TMFGITW, who is Pebbles' little sister. Pebbles is quite strapping.
Way to go you big fluffy Pebbles! Dear Millie, when do you think Pebbles might become a mother? I am on pins and needles and if it isn't exactly imminent it might be nice for me to relax a bit until the time is more appropriate for me to tense up. I hate being tensed up for nothing, don't you? This I know--the 2 year wait for babies from Pebbles is going to be waaaaay worth it. Her babies are going to be so elegantly beautiful, so sweet natured, so healthy, so desireable that the goat farmer can retire in great wealth should she decide to sell them which of course she won't so she will continue to work hard without wealth but with great happiness every time she sees these babies. And to all future fair entries in the area--do not plan on winning grand prize for the next few years. The grand prizes are already reserved for Pebbles' babies. You'll understand once you see them.
