No kids yet.

Man, if she bred at a later date (remember the buck ran with her for at least a month longer)...then we could have a couple more weeks of waiting...

Come on out pretty little DOELINGS

Thanks Jason. My knee is pretty messed up and sore but at least I won't be needing crutches. Just limping around. And bruised up. We had cold rain that turned the snow that was on the ground to ice then we had freezing rain on top of that. So it made every step treacherous.

We (with the vet) are believing that Daisy didn't take at the 8/25 breeding and took at a later date since the buck ran with her. So we'll probably be looking at another couple of weeks. Vet doesn't believe that she is overdue. And she is not in stress or distressed.

So...looks like she's been doing what a lot of goats seem to do about a month prior to birth...we'll see.

No new reports for Daisy.

Although she is back to acting absolutely normal Vet says most likely braxton hicks and still doesn't believe that anything is wrong.

So we wait...

I moved our 3 month olds into the stall next to her and she tries to "mother" them through the wall. I'm hoping to get her in the kidding mood.

Also just looked at the lunar calendar and the upcoming full moon is 2/18. Although to me it looks full from the 15th to the 22nd...but official date is 2/18...

So...my plan is to get her in the mommy mood with the kids next door and hopefully the pull of the moon will work it's magic on her too.

Until then... ...munch some popcorn with me and wait...and wait...and wait...

eta: in case you think I'm crazy...she really is pregnant... She just seems to love to make me feel crazy and sound like a liar

eta2: And if she took on a heat cycle in Sept (instead of the Aug one I thought) which she obviously did...then she'd be due between 2/12 and 2/17

Udders getting full right down to swelling out the teats

I still think we're waiting till the full moon a little later this month, but I was so excited to see those full udders that I had to share
