A quick update, Notre Lee is typically a very reclusive doe. She doesn’t like to be touched or caught or handled at all, I believe she may have been abused in her previous home because she shudders anytime someone tries to pet her. NOW though, she’s acting very lovey, just wants to be pet and cuddled which is EXTREMELY unusual for her. Does anybody else’s does have a serious behavior change closer to labor?

I have ewes that suddenly want tummy rubs, but not any other time. Yes, they want attention and petting, sometimes they go back to their standoffish ways, sometimes they remain friendly.

Poor girl, no babies yet😞. Udder looks like is about to explode (as usual) tears pointed sideways and everything, no discharge at all @Mini Horses I even followed your advice and told her I was leaving for a couple days lol. She has a foot of straw laid down for her to bed in and she hasn’t shown the slightest interest in eating all day, she just lays around and looks at me like it’s my fault she’s pregnant.
