I'm guessing Prudence will have twins.

I love Red's pink teats....they are so cute. :D =D

I'm drooling over Reds bag.

I hope she produces like that bag is starting to promise!

According to when I first put the bucks out, does could start any day now. Husband and I are constantly checking. With seven FF life is about to get interesting.

I got to play with babies today at the local dairy and I'm getting impatient. They were so cute!

Can't wait! :celebrate

I think FF and first-calf-heifers are the most fun when it comes to kidding/calving. Watching an udder/belly grow on an FF/FCH is always so interesting and exciting, not to mention seeing them being mommies for the first time, and how well they handle their babies (they can be brats sometimes, can't they?). ;)

Update: We've now got four does with major kid movement. John and I are in the stalls with Karma and Red. We can literally feel movement, BIG movement. It's amazing.

Lilly and Prudence are in the next stall, holding tight.

Spent the night with the goats. They're laughing at us.

Full appetites this morning, usual amount of rowdy behaviour. Went ahead an a turned them out for the day. I'll be home to watch them.

Agreed. After we got to feeling around and poking around, we realized they weren't in position yet. Have up at 2 last night for Red. She's holding strong.
