Goat Kidding need advice! UPDATED..FINALLY a baby!!***PICS*** :D

[Roll farms]

I've had does in labor for literally hours and hours before any real pushing starts, usually on days I have to be at work and can't stick around for the show.

I'll go away and feed another pen or do laundry and think, "Surely by NOW she's pushing" and go back and....not yet.

Seems the first timers take longest, too...

Again, good luck w/ them / her.

Well...she FINALLY had the baby!!!!
Meet Sadie born on Sunday March 21st around 4 o'clock...in the mud! We had been keeping mom in a stall, but had let her out for a couple hours for exercise and such and she dropped her in a mudhole! :/ She's doing great now though and has been putting all other animals in check! My tom turkey is scared of her
