I love it! Just went to look and a couple goats are playing "king of the stump" (Queen?) Tell your hubby thankyou for me.:D
Yup, that is the favorite game, that and this hut is mine today. I will pass that message along. He is out of town tonight, so I figured maybe Elsie would be ready to go just because I was here alone. But when I checked her before I put them in for the night, she hasn't made any progress, so maybe nobody told her he was gone.;)

Thanks so much for your efforts on our behalf. All we need to do is run back and forth to the computer 18 times a day to check on YOUR goats. LOL.

I'm all signed in and eager for action.

Thanks again,

DonnaBelle
We do what we can.:lol: Besides, this way, if I miss something, SOMEBODY will see it.:hide

We moved some goats around today, so tonight Elsie is spending her first night in her kidding pen. If she is showing no signs of labor, I will let her out during the day tomorrow, but this way she can start to get used to her new night time home. There is ONE, tiny little corner that the camera doesn't catch.....guess where she has chosen to lay..Oh well, that's a goat for ya...

I think we are still a little while away, but ligs are coming and going and softer when they are there. As the day got colder and rainier here, she was funny. She went to the door of the kidding stall, which she saw for the first time yesterday afternoon, and wanted to go in. We left her in late this afternoon, and she has been munchin and lazin around in there ever since. It is a miserable night here, so I am glad I can watch her from my lazy boy and not have to run out there to check on her. so.....pull up a :hide and grab a:pop and :caf with me.:thumbsup

Signs between yesterday and this morning:
She seems to have dropped a bit in the sides.
Udder is firm but not tight, no real change since yesterday that I can see or feel.
Ligs softer but still there.

Signs between this morning 8am and now 2:30pm:
Very slight bit of discharge
Udder same as this morning, firm but not tight.
Ligs are barely there.

Biggest difference: BEING MEAN to other goats, and guarding the hay rack vigorously!!
Leaning into me wanting her back massaged, but NOT wanting me to check ligs.

My guess is..........she's pregnant and will deliver sometime. :gig :idunno
