I know mud is a real problem for you guys down south, i would take mud over frostbite kids though.

Those are pretty terrible temps. So thankful we are in NC!

Leah had some “stuff” stuck to her rear end. Today is technically day 144 (12am here)
Probably nothing but she didn’t go to her normal hay spot either when I put out alfalfa. Don’t want to move her to the kidding building until daylight or else she’ll get stressed. I’ll probably move her tomorrow.

It’s been raining on/off all day today. :(

Went ahead and moved her so we can monitor her. I doubt she’ll go tonight or tomorrow, but she seems to be positioning and the kids must be hitting a nerve so she’s a little slower on her rear leg/s.
She’s stretching a lot and doesn’t want to be touched. I can wrap my fingers around her tail head but I can still feel her ligs. They are definitely starting to shift though.
She kids very quickly, last year she had quads in under 15 minutes.
