First timer with Lionheads!

[Becca'sBunnyBarn]

I have Lionheads and yes they can be wierd about their nesting. I use wood nestboxes with wire bottoms ( scraps from building my cages ) with lots of hay. I usally have to replace the hay once before she actully builds the nest because she uses it like a litterbox.

Thank you so very much for your experience and advice! Unfortunately no kits this round. With a newbie me, First timers doe and buck, to be expected. I'm really hoping its just that, and not a bad breeder on either end. Dulce' has been okay, but i am a little leary still since she bit me =/

I have 3 doe goats due this week and into next, so that will keep me busy. Will re-breed both of my does as soon as my kidding is done

Okay here we are 2 months later and we are FINALLY expecting kits this weekend!!!!! I bred both girls as suggested.
Dulce built her nest yesterday.
Fluffy is attempting to make hers.

We made a huge hutch for the kits/ Dulce'. Fluffy is in the hutch (still inside) but the hutch is outside. We moved Dulce in almost 2 weeks ago now, and she DOES NOT seem happy . little food consumption, and today i noticed she has runs =/ i am extremely concerned. I pulled her out this morning. When i touched her stomach she did squeak (i felt horrible! ) so i held her toosh and back while i cleaned her tail area. Advice? I'm hoping its just from the change, but i am worried. I do NOT want to stress her, or lose her! He cage in the house was just WAY too small.

Pics from last weekend.
We have the ramp removed from the 1st to 2nd level so McQueen can romp during the day. Ramp from 2nd to 3rd level in, but she has no interest in heading up to enclosed area (i thought for sure she would love that). Her nest is directly behind where she sits in this pic. About 10inches off her food/water. So close to the door for me!
