Congratulations for round two! We just watched that birth - adorable! I'm posting while you're determining gender :D
Ok, I'm confused! Did another goat have kids? Did Elsie sneak her in on you?

Ohhh, I'm an idiot . . . actually I'm sleep deprived from all the barn checks on someone who is day 149 and holding out for next Christmas. I just watched Dusty's delivery and thought it was live (blush).

:yuckyuck Ok, had me all confused there. I know Elsie is due but I thought it wasn't till next week. Tried to see the feed earlier and it was off line. I wasn't having the best of luck with it last night.

Hoping your girl kids for you soon. I'll be in your boat in April when my does are due to kid.

You are not the only one that did this. The feed automatically goes to Dusty's video when the live feed is down. My Aunt did the same thing and called me all confused too. Sorry bout that. Elsie is still hanging in there, and I will try to post some notice when she is getting ready to go.

Good morning.

Status Report: Stormy and Shadow doing great. Bouncing around and eating like little pigs. The only problem we are having is that Sunny keeps shoving the barrel so she can get to the heater. We had to build it in. The brat.
:barnie

Elsie is hanging in there. Ligs are softer but still there. I am thinking maybe a couple days yet but will keep a close watch on her. :hu

Barn Camera is a pain in my .......Our internet here stinks, and on top of the problems with the camera itself, the internet has decided that this week is gonna be 'one of those weeks'. The internet provider and I are going to have a 'come to Jesus meeting' on the phone just as soon as 9am gets here so I can talk to an actual person. ggggrrrrr.
:duc :he

Brandy is getting a pretty nice little handful of udder. She is eating like she is starving, which she does all the time anyway, preggers or not. She looks huge, but this is the first time I have seen her pregnant, so don't know if this is normal for her or if she is having a baseball team. Time will tell.:idunno

Will try to get the stupid camera back up and running AGAIN. Will try and give notice before Elsie kids.

Hope everybody is having a great day.

Good morning all :frow

Status Update: Stormy and Shadow doing great. Can tell they are gaining weight already. Sunny is a great mom, and has a good milk supply.

Elsie has no ligs this morning, and is losing her plug. She usually waits til the last minute to do this, so it could be today. It was 0 here this morning, so it would figure. Her actual due date is Friday, so anytime this week would be within her window. I originally thought she would only have twins, but she has gotten really tight around her belly, and also lower to the ground, so she may fool me and have trips again. Cross your fingers for girls. These will be our only FB Fainters and I need some breeding stock. The girls from last years trips are still too small to breed, even though they are growing still at 1 year old the 29th.

Brandy doing good and on track for March 5.

Dusty has not come back into heat, so maybe she finally took. Could be either Dude or little Elijah babies, they were both with her the same day, the hussy. If she did take, she won't be due til the end of June. Waaaay later than I would like, and the latest I would ever want to have kids. Just too darn hot after the first part of June.

Stephanie.................:idunno :hu :he :smack

Will try to warn if Elsie goes, camera is working at the moment, but it is a minute to minute thing with it. Before the next batch, there is going to be some major changes around here with internet and camera set ups, this running back and forth just to reset the camera is a major pain in my arse.

Later, have a great day.

Sounds like Elsie will be very soon...really hope your internet and camera work!!!! Thinking pink for you :fl

Last time I emailed the link of your webcam to my sister in law...who totally loved watching the birth...she is taken with the miracle of the whole process :) Will tell her to check on and off today...just in case...I'll be doing the same :)

Sorry it is so cold...would be nice for the temps to come up before the kids arrive!

Apparently my computer has decided I don't need to watch goats kidding. All I am getting is a frozen picture. I tried it on both IE and Google Chrome. Both had the same results. Guess it's just not meant for me to keep checking on a goat and get to watch her kid. :hit
