She hasn't started to really swell up back there so I'm guessing you have a little while yet. And it's hard to tell if she has say one big one and will go soon or twins or trips and will kid later. Only way to really answer that is w/ a vet sonogram.

I'd say that eggo is definitely preggo though (L)


Nubians tend to be seasonal breeders but not all are <looks glaringly at her goats>

LOL I'd watch her closely as she is bagging up. I have an alpine that I NEVER saw in heat last yr deliver a 10# kid! The same "sweetheart" has jumped her 4 ft fence and get this climbed up a flight of stairs on the side of my barn and jumped into the adjacent buck pen TWICE in the last 2 months. Big time acrobatics (luckily without any broken bones). Still not showing heat signs but my guess is that kids will happen smack in the middle of winter. Definately OFF SEASON. I think video monitors will go up in the barn early this year!

I have a yearling that can do a standing high jump within a foot of the 4 ft fence without any problems.

yup and typical goat. Since the pics were taken she has increased her girth quite a bit :)
Counting ahead from her detected heat I think we're looking at August 25th as the next possible.

No she didn't kid yet. It's been 6 weeks ago today that she started developing the udder. Her girth has grown and she has begun to flatten in the pooch area but no baby yet :rolleyes:

I think it's gonna be a couple more weeks and a single. Unless she's faking it.
