bunny and drama mama are looking good. Bunny looks to be around 10 days to 2 weeks away from kidding, little harder to tell with drama mamma, she look to still have 3 to 6 weeks.
It can be pretty hard to tell if they are carrying a single a twins, the younger does just don't get as big a belly as some of the older does do, and can hide a set of twins. But they do both look like they could be carrying just singles, especially drama mamma, if she is due in 20 days.

I ran across an ad on craigslist for a Nubian doe. Here is a copy of the ad.
I talked to the seller and the only reason he's listing her is because he wants another doe that is not so closely related to the rest of his does. She's bred to a spotted Nubian buck and due 3/21. She's ADGA registered and the kids could be registered as well.
Her ADGA Registration #: N001412504
Backcountry Macey
Pedigree includes Foxwood and Backcountry bloodlines
So, what do y'all think?

Did you get her yet?
Sounds reasonable to me. Can you see pics of her Mom and dad's mom and ther udders?
This is all new to me, but I have learned a lot about what to ask for from everyone here on BYH.

Around here that's a good price! Can he send pictures of her udder? She is almost four so you should be able to tell what her handles look like. I wonder if she has had her babies pulled and been milked, or if she has been able to nurse her babies... Are you planning on milking her? Is she trained to a stand? How much does she produce?

I've been looking at that add a few times. Really wished I had the land for her and the money to get her too. At least if y'all get her I can see what her babies come out looking like!

We're planning on sending a deposit on her this weekend once we get a chance to look her over and ask some important questions (like those posed by ksj0225). I was able to do some research and found some information on her Dam and Sire. Most of the reference pages with actual pictures for other goats in her bloodline have been long gone. I'll keep y'all posted!
I figure she would make a good senior doe for me to practice with before our yearlings get big enough to breed.

The picture he was able to send me was the same one from the ad. But, here is the buck she's bred to:
