I have one line of does that is notorious for quads and lots of trips but have had quads out of other lines I have. Usually it is mature does in my herd that have quads but have had a first freshner have a set. They are usually uniform in size but I do not like quads. Takes too much out of the doe and they must have special care or it really hurts them. The number of kids to expect is a crapshoot. I have seen fat does have singles and some have quads. I have tried different feeding programs to try to prevent quads, I now just accept that I can't control Mother Nature and try to have the does in good health and take what ever comes out.
