Hello all! New here, but wanted to add my girls to the kidding threads. I'm north of Omaha, NE and I have 11 goats: one LaMancha wether, 3 Nubian bucks and 7 nubian does. All are ADGA, except the wether.

My girls all live with my bucks full time so I know only somewhat of when they are due. So far, I have 3 girls that are looking close, one 4 year old doe who is a 3rd freshener and 2 first timers. I saw Missy, my 4 y/o, in heat in August and she looks pretty huge, no udder just yet, but she wont bag till shes very close. My first time girls are a bit wild as they were dam raised, but they are starting to get little udders so i am looking for them to kid in the next 4 weeks.

I will take udder pictures tomorrow!!

Keep us updated! I stared a kidding thread as well. This will be our first time. We have two does due in March and they are FF.

You sure must be excited!

Curious about the last girl (last photo) is there something wrong with her back hooves? The back foot/hoof looks rather deformed. I've never seen that before.

I am curious how did you get them to all stay in a line like that. If I tried that there would be running form pile to pile or if I dont it in a long line one goat would claim that as her pile lol.
