    New to goats could my Pygmy be in pre labor?

    We think that our hanging around kept Momma Goat from kidding. It could have been the position of the first kid (I don't think it's 'our fault' that labor delayed and the first one was stillborn) but looking back my husband and I both think it was the girls and I being out there that wouldn't...

    Remove wattles?

    Ok...Ok...Y'all convinced me! The wattles can stay! ;) I have to say I'm actually surprised so many people seem to like them! They really aren't very cooperative when it comes to taking pictures (they aren't even extremely active yet either) but I did get a picture of their wattles since...

    Remove wattles?

    What are your personal feelings on wattles? I will admit Momma Goat has them and they drive me a little crazy...crazier...:P Hers hang below her ears and one is larger than the other so it looks funny to me! I don't want to do something that would be extremely painful for them, they were...

    New to goats could my Pygmy be in pre labor?

    I wish I could help. Nothing went like I thought it would with Momma Goat last night so I'm not even going to venture a guess on your girl! ;)

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    They are here! She had triplets but the first one (a girl) was still born and my husband said the other 2 are a boy and girl. (The previous owners said the same thing happened her FF, we thought that maybe she didn't know what to do and didn't get the baby cleaned up in time the first time...

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    Just in case anyone is up waiting on their doe(s) to kid too I thought I'd drop by with an update...nothing yet but I'm 99.9% sure she's in early labor going into an active stage. I told my daughter I don't expect anything to really happen for another hour or so (12:30 our time) but I seriously...

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    PLEASE tell me this means soon! We of course have plans for tomorrow so she'll either keep me up all night or wait for me to leave...lol AND my husband is working a night shift (after being off for a week...doe code! lol) For some reason the straight on, best, picture that I got isn't...

    New to goats could my Pygmy be in pre labor?

    EEEkkkkk!!! So exciting! It looks like we might be having babies tonight/tomorrow here and I came to post an update and had to read your thread! My daughter just came in and said she's doing a weird squat and there's a huge mucus and I realllllly hope this isn't a 'she could still have a few...

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    So...I've decided to charge my camera battery. I'm starting to thing being 'unprepared' isn't what she wants, she's waiting for me to be over prepared! :) Her tail looks floppy and jiggles when she walks, her back end is swollen, her sides are sunken in, when she gets up from sitting there's...

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    No real change plus she was all about dinner tonight, I guess she was just 'kidding'...I can't believe I just used that...I swear she hates me! lol :P My husband is LOVING this btw...I'm one of those people who's not wrong very often (not tooting my own horn, just saying if I don't KNOW...

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    She was acting 'different' yesterday, following us around at normal feeding time but not eating. This morning she was laying weird and didn't really respond when I went outside. Scared me to death, but she was fine. Didn't seem interested in eating really still. Well, I went out and check on...

    Well, she's still pregnant but she didn't seem interested in doing much today...it could be our 100+ temps...and she didn't really want to eat feed tonight but she did go over to the hay...Our new Great Dane puppy is taking up soooo much of my time/energy and then my 13 year old son broke out in...

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    I've felt her ligaments but I'm not sure if I'm 'checking' them right...lol I broke down and took pictures today. She seems to have 'slimmed down' a little from a couple of days ago but no other real change. She's going to be pregnant FOREVER!:P

    Daisy-20 days to go

    After looking at more pictures of Daisy she looks bigger than Momma Goat. I was hoping for an August 1st due date but now it looks like my husband is going to be right...it doesn't happen often but I hate when he's right!!! lol

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    Still nothing...nothing...nothing...NOTHING!!! She looks about as big as Rinksgi's Daisy. She was looking 'miserable' and had a 'help me please!' look about her for awhile now and all of the sudden she's all spunky, bright eyed and bushy tailed. Trotting to be the first to eat, singing along...

    How much longer? 8/18-triplets, one stillborn.

    I've been getting disappointed when going out to look at her because there hasn't been any change. After looking at these pictures again I will admit that I'm wrong! Her udder is larger and heavier but she doesn't seem to be anywhere near as large as photos of other does that are close. Her...
