Well...
Her tail is all gunky, her udder keeps getting bigger and tighter then softens, then it gets a bit bigger and tightens, then it softens, so im not sure if thats just her udder growing or what...
But now every time she stands up on the side of the pen her vulva literally opens and looks like you can stick your hand up there.
Then again, my doe is a fruit cake adding a section to the doe code apparently so im not sure whether or not to think shes close.
The baby is kicking like a kangaroo in there, bouncing her sides like the bottom of a trampoline. Its like its begging her to let it out!!!

Alright, well we took Annie out for a walk in the front yard and I noticed her udder looks different, so when we brought her in I took pictures!

Shes bigger then she has ever been, and shes never been a very big doe. And you can see the tarp she keeps digging up and dragging across the pen, ohy...

You can kinda see her udder through her fluff. I shaved her WAY back, and it reclaimed its land...Anyway, you can see how shes starting to strut *Maybe?*, her little nippys are pointing out sideways now when yesterday they were simply straight down, and her udders are huge compared to what it was. Sorry, the picture is not the best and its on a na angle which is even worse, but it was the best i could do with her constanrtly turning around to try and lick my face. Shes getting really..."I must clean you!" every time she sees me.
Her ligaments are still soft, not gone yet, but soft.

And this is me asking her nicely to let the baby out...She is gently telling me no...

:lol: Her udder is developing nicely. It doesn't look like it is filling just yet but is definitely growing.

So has she had that baby yet? WE are all dying to know...

Annie, have that kid! No one will make fun of you, NO ONE!
Nothing...
Though her vulva seems to be getting a bit red-er, again...
Shes diving into her hay, her udder is playing tricks on me, and shes started screaming for me again...
She is seriously making me nuts!!
Shes not pawing anymore either like she used to, she does it almost halfheartedly now, and its to the point that i'm threatening to go in there and get it :mad:
brat let the baby out!!!! Ugh :barnie
