Mama's Kidding Thread - She Kidded! VIDEO - New pictures added 1/19

[SarahFair]

I notcied she's shying away from the bunch a little. Shell get up aand graze a little but when she lays down she goes to a area away from everyone.
We were out bruning today and noticed when she got up her udder was noticeably larger.. not tight but larger.
I hope her ligaments soften back up by the time I check on her tonight.

Another thing I noticed is she stayed really away from us. Usually she's worse than a dog right up under you.. but today she doesn't want me touching her or around her (unless I'm doing something directly for her.. ie: giving her food or opening a door for her)

Thanks y'all!
Her ligaments are still there as 5:30 this morning.

I swear its driving me nuts. There I was having a nice little dream about Christopher Plummer when a lady came and sat down and started telling me about goat labor signs. I woke up thinking about it extra early.



She was doing some soft calling this morning but its not the first time this past week I've heard it.
...she was probly just trying to sweet talk me into letting her out.

Ill take her daily updated pictures when it gets light out here

Amazing how goats and babies get into your head at night.

Hopefully Mama kids soon and you have Healthy Babies and Healthy Mom. And then you and Christopher Plummer can talk about what a excellent idea for him to have a pretty goat from your herd. lol.
