After all night back and forth from the barn and a water pipe busting and my hubby away from home and having to walk all the way to the barn alone and its snowing..........she hasn't had them YET. However her 'woo-hoo' is saying she is going to at any minute. No water bag or amber goop yet though so I am just going with the flow. She still isn't in the pushing stage but I expect it to start any minute. Now for some coffee and breakfast :caf I am gonna take some 'woo-hoo' pics and post so you can see its for real! She just wanted to keep me up all night :rolleyes:

:lol: Woo-hoo is a happy noise and hoo-hoo is the back end of a goat.... :p

So you say "Woo-hoo!" when a healthy doeling comes out of a hoo-hoo....

I have had a doe with her "hoo-hoo" looking ready for a week now. And the due date isn't until feb 2nd. I don't go "woo-hoo" until there are actually live babies on the ground nursing. We had 7" of ice and snow last night with a "hoo-hoo" looking ready, and still no babies. :/

Ok so here is her HOO-HOO ;) It actually looks more red and swollen and open than this. I couldn't get a real up close shot cause my flash kept making it too bright.

I have one in the kidding pen that has been building an udder for 44 days, has had discharge for 19 days and has a hoo hoo that says anytime now for 9 days. Her ligs disapeared Tuesday. :idunno

Her pen mate kidded last night with no signs at all! She was scarfing down gran, five minutes later she was calmly chewing hay and *plop* a baby just dropped on the ground. :hu

I agree with 20kids, don't count your kids until they are on the ground!

And a watched doe never kids. :barnie


Good luck, hope for lots of pink (or blue if that's what you want) :fl
