Oh a

Haha the pics didn't work!! I'm sorry here is one from last night (sorry about the quality I had to take picture of the pictures that were on my camera cause the computer hates me )

I know! that's why I find it kinda hard to belive my sannen doe didn't even give that much she gave 1 gallon as a a FF but never got anymore than just above 1.5 gallons at her peek




Well tonight we had some white discharge!
I know I know this doesn't mean much but it means we are getting closer! I would have got a pic but its too dark it was just a very small amount though. Her ligs are very hard so not tonight probably. but her udder does seem like it has filled a bit more but hey it's dark so I could be seeing things



I believe we are at day 143 they said she normally kids day 152 so hopefully she will stick to that date

As a FF, 1 gallon seems like a lot! My FF Alpine gives at most 3 1/2 cups of milk.

Awwwww! Thank you for all the pictures! Sam and Lucas are cuties for sure. Is Maggie your Myotonic doe's (Miracle) doeling? All of your goats are lovely, and Black Beauty already looks better.

 

[SandDherds]

Thanks! And yes she is I was going to choose penelope but everyone started calling her baggie and big head lol and eventually we started calling her Maggie and it stuck

Okay so update! Her ligs were pretty soft not gone at all though and her bag hasn't filled and no more discharge. It is really windy tonight not sure if it has anything to do with this but meredith who isn't due for another 4 weeks or so (she is on day 145 April 28 if she was bred day 1) she kinda acted labor-ish she was up she was very vocal her ligs were hard to find but still there, then she was down and her vulva was kinda open a bit but if she has 4 kids in there I could under stand that lol but on the bright side when she was down I felt the first baby kicks!! I haven't been able to feel them and was kinda worried but I sure did feel them tonight! Anyways about 11PM here so going to try to get some rest! I'll update in the morning

Maggie is a great name for her! She's turning into a very purty girl, that's for sure. Does she have blue eyes (I can't really tell from the picture)?

She has marbled eyes I guess you could call them they are turning brown but they have had some brown from day 1 so I'll just leave it at 1/2 blue 1/2 brown eyes
