Flooded Creek Farm Goat Cam. Weighed the babies...WOW!!!

OMG...this sooooooo much worse than waiting for chickens to hatch

Yeh, there all you do is stare at the egg, but at least it is laying relatively still. Following the goat around staring at her girlie parts gets to be kinda weird after a while.

She will kid when the snow is blowing and it feels like it is -20 below.
I hope she doesn't but she has learned doe code well

Yeh, I have been telling her all day that tonight, with 6 inches of snow coming would be a TERRIBLE time to give birth....I am not sure, but I think maybe she is on to me and knows I am trying to use reverse psychology on her.

I have off tonight and as soon as I return from stocking up at the store for the two inches of snow we are expecting, this laptop and I are going to have a girls night in....wish I could get a goat app for my phone.

Did the babies drop? They look like they're sitting lower but I can't get a good look since she's avoiding the camera (again!)

Yes they did, she looks like she is carrying them in a sack under her belly. She knows that camera is there, there is no doubt in my mind. I told her today I was tired of looking at the bottom 2 inches of her front legs. It didn't seem to impress her.

Good morning all. As you can see from my answer above, we still have no babies. Although I am kind of glad we don't. It is all of 8 degrees here this morning. Elsie is happily munching on her breakfast with basically no changes. Tonight it is supposed to warm up, but it also supposed to rain, sleet and snow. As I am typing this, I have the camera up on screen, and I see the dh go into Elsie's pen, fluff up and put clean bedding down, and he is telling her while he is doing it " here is some nice fluffy bedding, see how comfy your bed is to have babies on. We have resorted to blackmail and or bribery, the only thing we have not tried is to offer to let her come in and have them on the couch. I am afraid that is next. Hope everyone has a great day.
