No babies yet...

Boy am I nervous! This is our first kidding and we weren't expecting it since we just got Lilly about a month ago (her previous owner warned us that she may be preggers - and oh boy!)

Her best bud, Rocky (a wether) won't leave her side and she seems calmer when he's near...I hope that's not a problem...I don't want to stress her so I left him with her.

Yes, it is fine for him to stay with her if he is calming her down and not bothering her. Good luck!

Congrats!

She should be just fine. Our first goat, Gidget, wasn't supposed to have been bred, but less than a month later she bagged up and a couple weeks after that she had a baby. We didn't even notice she was in labor.

You are lucky you get to watch.

Don't forget to wipe the little nose and dip the little navel in iodine when it comes. The iodine is just to be safe.

I know it's late and there's probably a big time difference, but I'm happy for you despite the lateness of the hour.

Maybe she'll have twins and hopefully a doeling.

I can't wait to see picks and hear how it went.

I'll get better pics later for y'all. I had to kick her buddy out cause she didn't want him when the baby was born :idunno guess he was only good for moral support during early contractions! :D

Now just gotta wait for the rest (I'm sure that there's at least 1 more)... :pop
