Sometimes they will stand even if they are pregnant so be prepared for the first date but not surprised if she goes the second date. No, NOTHING is EVER black and white with livestock.
My FF doe stood for my buck after she was bred. Only reason I know that is because she kidded a month before I was expecting her to!

Sometimes the body doesn't realize it's pregnant and can go into a false heat. Or, it can actually release an egg, hence, superfetation! Rare, but possible.

It's amazing how big some animals can get and also amazing how small others can be while pregnant.

Well I am learning that nothing is normal, that's for sure! Today she looked less wide but her belly is a lot closer to the ground. I don't want to kick back until April 4th...just in case she throws me a curve ball.

I woke up this morning to my boys yelling in excitement. "BERNICE HAD HER BABIES!"

Sometime in the night she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl! Her second due date was April 4th. Last night, the only indication that she was getting closer to kidding was that she was starting to bag up. There were no other signs! I felt safe to assume that she wasn't going into labor in the next 24 hours. WRONG! LOL
The white one is the doeling and the cream one is the buckling. Meet the babies:

I'm waiting on my first set of kids too! Mine are also LaMancha's so it's exciting to see someone else went through what I'm going through with my girls!
