Very true Luvmypets...that is how Dixie's udder looked...and not big at all side to side...and her girlie parts were pink but not an angry red...and she shocked me with her new lambie!!!! Keep an eye on her, she could do a Dixie surprise to you!!!!

Only thing I saw that might mean birthing soon was the teats at right angles...wishing you a healthy lambie soon!!!!

luv, I think MaryEllen's udder was about that size the week up to her lambing.
It honestly didn't get much bigger? It could fit in my hand and that was about it!
NOW it's huge really, so much bigger than her dam's udder!
MaryEllen has really good milk production I think, her lambs are still nursing frequently, and growing fast!
