Its been rainy and yucky (for Florida) all day. Just the kind of day for doe code. However, nothing new. Tomorrow evening we go for our health certificate. Last year our other doe went into labor (day151) on our way home. But she's our trouble goat. A repeat would be ironic.

Learned my new barn needs gutters and downspouts
Remind me Orchid is bred to Lord Drinian?

Yes, she is. She will be 145 from date #2 on the 19/20 according to my records.

If Nim (our grade LM) doesn't kid by the end of January then those will be his too. But, we saw her bred multiple times with the Lamancha buck and she didn't come back into heat and was only in contact with him when I was around and assumed she was bred. Anyway. Im happy she's not open as a 2 yr old!

Well,it's day 149 for Ruby and nothing. I mean, she's fat, acts like I'm starving her, and grouchy. Has been for the last two weeks. I really wanted her to have them before tomorrow.

Orchid, who isn't supposed to be due until 20-25th is really loose. I can touch my fingers together under her tail. I felt a baby this morning when she was eating.

Nim is getting more belly- a little.

Ruby's udder doubled in size this evening. I'm up cleaning the house for our house sitters anyway (hey, I have four kids and a farm- 11-2am is about the only time left!) so I've been checking every two hours. So far she's just restless.

She'll probably kid right after I go to sleep. I'll be up at 6:30 to see unless something progresses in which case I'll probably not be sleeping much. At least its not raining and around 65'

No babies yet. I don't see how she can make it to tomorrow though. She's not having noticeable contractions and we got one string of goo this morning and that's it. She's still happy, eating, waddling around with huge udder.
