Pregnant Goat VERY fat... UPDATE: PIC OF A 225LB NUBIAN DOE!!!

[GLENMAR]

She is a big girl. Can't wait to see what you get. My first kidding last year was just 1 buckling. Now I have 2 girls bred.
I want 4 doelings Who dosen't, right??

 

[WhiteMountainsRanch]

Yes she is a big girl! When I first got her she pulled me down over the milking stand when I had her collar, and I am a STRONG woman! LoL.


I'm hoping for triplets from her, 2 girls and a boy. I'll keep one girl and the buck, and I have a friend who wants the other doe from her.

Oh my...I think my two boer wethers are FAT. They look bigger than your prego doe.

I can still see her hip bone...so she can't be that big? Love here curly hair.

Ok, I taped her today and it was OVER the limit of the dairy tape!!!

By continuing on in inches the same scale as the tape that puts her at about 220-225.

That means since last summer she has gained like 60 pounds!!! See I knew she was fat!

Funny thing is I can see her hip bones more now than at the beginning of the pregnancy.

No wonder she is sluggish and her knees click!!!

She must be carrying 10 babies in there!!!

I will get an updated pic tomorrow.

Wait, your NOT supposed to feed pregnant goats grain?

Crap.


And oh my gosh. That is ridiculous xD. She is fat.
Mrs. Fat ^^

Maybe she'll have quads or 5's !!!! [No idea what 5 set would be]

Oh, and is that GRASS i see??!?!?!?!?
IN JANUARY!?!?!

The south is weird.

I have never used a tape to measure the weight. I think Ill get one to check my chubby nigerian doe. She is so big, im worried, but maybe Im just used to smaller goats and she is just right.

Where on the body do you put the tape around WhiteMountainsRanch?

 

[Fluffygal]

Ofcourse she could just have one big buck baby in there

Who was it that had the dream post about the huge baby? This just made me think of that.

Do you have an updated pic of her? Maybe one that shows her before and one that shows her now?

I am fairly inexperienced, but I'm wondering if she could be slightly bloated? My buck looked like he had an innertube around his belly. I gave him a CD&T shot and 3 weeks later, a booster. He has slimmed down a lot And I have not changed feed. So, I was wondering if you have given your doe a shot?

 

[WhiteMountainsRanch]

I haven't done anything different with her now that before, except now she is pregnant. She is getting her CD&T shot in a couple days.


I will get pics tomorrow and post before & afters.

So I could get accurate weights, I bought a Large Dog Scale that goes up to 250lbs. It makes keeping track of weights easier. I found that scale for $100 after some hunting. It makes a world of difference compared to a weight tape.
