Ridin' The Range
O.k., so I caught her in the pen....3 weeks ago....had the for sure date, until my hard drive crashed , anyways, I think she's further along than what I was thinking, she's very sneaky, she's my brat. I noticed a while back, 2 months ago, that she has had a crappy attitude, doesn't want me to touch her, been very whiny, she's normally at the back door waiting for me in the morning, I took as a relief she was finally starting to act like the rest of my adult herd, she is 1 1/2 years old, and has always been a baby. Anyways, here's what I'm seeing, observing for the last week, udder building up, swirls all over her belly, can NOT touch her at all and everyday her hoo-hoo pokes out a little bit more, I'm on here because today, well, it looks sooner than later and any guesstimates are welcome, I know there is no way to tell for sure, but it's something to calm me down. I'm going 7 1/2 hours away in 3 weeks, entire family for a weekend, and I don't think she will have any on the ground then,but what if I'm wrong? And the insanity starts
Here she is, oh and the roundness !!!! She's a fatty, 2 girls I bred before she ended up in the buck pen, planned on breeding her in September, look nothing like her, no where near,1 this is her first and the other this is her second. They don't look anything not even a slight bit alike.
She is my Queen of......dirt rolling, my buck he is King of.....dirt rolling...they are my only goats, that will lay on their backs and roll in the dirt, I've caught her rolling on the basketball court, anyways here's the hoo-hoo in question, ligaments are firm, belly after eating, very big, but she is barely eating, she acts like it is too much trouble for her to get up,she will half way get up and wait to see if I'm going to force the issue, she now paws at the ground to lay, never has done that, she's a flop right here who cares kind of girl. I've got 2 or so more months right?
*note on her barely eating-I have to watch her normally because she is my hog, have had to treat for bloat many times and haven't had to in 3 or 4 months, when it was normal to treat her at least once a week, was her main reason to get into the buck pen. BRAT.
