Gracie is about to burst

[freemotion]

Rule in my house: pie must be eaten, every last crumb, within hours of being made. No soggy pie allowed! It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.

***sigh*** ......I'll volunteer. Again.

Just to update , No babies yet, but I did her her bum shaved so now I can see better. Anyone ever had a doe exrayed and the baby looked like a blob? That's what the baby looked like so I am trying to find a gestational age for when the bones get calcified.
I only found from 35-70 days is when you can see the baby. Thanks for nothin.lol. That's alot of days in bewteen.
Well I have Dec. 5th as maybe a new date??? I added a week to the Nov.23rd to make it 155 days.
I took her in July 23 and got the exray done.
I know she is going to have it when I am gone and I will be soo sad

you know most goats plan to have kids when "no one is around" or early early morning when no critters are stirring and all that.....they truly want privacy.

most of our goats have had their babies in mid afternoon or early evening. guess they feel more secure in the daylight hours.

no baaaabies yet,
I am done being nervous, I am convinced she is waiting for the coldest blusteriest night to have that baby.

LOL--she is out to get you!!!!


she is enjoying watching you squirm...HAHA


nah, don't worry, they blow when they blow!!!!

when you rest your mind and don't care--BOOM--those kids pop out!



Having a big herd, for me when I predicted the exact time, it seems I always had ONE thing planned I knew I had to attend etc.
THAT is the exact day they started to kid out. AND if one blew, they all blew within a day of each other..LOL

UpDate, So I am no vet but I really don't think she was pregnant back in July.
if she was something happened because has still never has had a baby she is so fat, but I think she is pregnant now, She ran with my boys I had got back in sept. thinking she was already pregnant I didn't care about them mating, I thought she just likes boys
So to everyone who's having goat babies I am sooo jealous, looks like sometime in Feb I will hopefully get one. I am soo dumb I didn't even pay attention to the days she and her boyfriend were messing around I know it's mid month, I looked up Fiasco farms and it put 's in sometime in mid Feb. So thanks to everyone for all the advise.
