Goat Whisperer's & SBC's kidding thread: kidding storm

[Southern by choice]

LOL I can't believe you didn't post this one... Leah

Of course Ruth's Left side is the more visible side because of the shot angle but I assure you this doe is big!

Lucy is getting quite rotund as well and she is carrying Isaac babies too! @OneFineAcre Lucy is a tiny doe and she is looking welllllll bred!

Of course sometimes they can surprise you and be huge and carry a single or twins so I guess we will see.
Ruth and Lucy up first due 2/23 Leah 3/8.

I love baby bellies . I swear some of my does due in March are already showing. John agrees. Wonder how many we've got cooking .

Poor girls they still have 1-2 months to go!

 

[Goat Whisperer]

Leah is due in March. Ruth in February. They definitely have a belly going on!

Is it just me or does Leah look smaller than usual?

 

[Ferguson K]

Doesnt Leah usually have a litter?

 

[Goat Whisperer]

She's always been a smaller doe. Leah was was 45 lbs the first time she kidded. Over the last year or two she has really matured, closer to 60lbs now. She does look a little small as she was curled up and sleeping. Poor girl was wet and I think a bit chilled. I dried her off and locked her in the walkway so she couldn't go out in the rain. Don't know if the goats kicked her out or what. I did notice the gutter was leaking and she would be in the "splash zone" but don't know. They all had hay in the barn so she wasn't out waiting for hay/grain

Doesnt Leah usually have a litter?

She's only kidded twice and has had 9 kids so far- quints and quads. So yes

@luvmypets Leah is a tiny doe.
@Ferguson K yes, Leah has litters
Gestation is 21 1/2 weeks long and they are.... 10 wks for Ruth and Lucy
8.5 pregnant for Leah so she has a ways to go!

Leah had quints last time this was her 6 days before before kidding, she was at day 142.
