Maybe the Gatorade, apple, strawberry, and banana was to much on her rumen. :idunno I know you want to help her, but you have to do it slowly. How much of the slurry did you drench her with?

Oops, that was my bad sorry. She has been grinding her teeth since yesterday. I did not type that properly...
I gave her 40 cc's, two syringe fulls so that she has something in her.

Oh, okay.

Forgot to say, Jodie did give good advice! You should be able to pick some up at your feed store.
I actually ordered it just so i could have it around. it will be in on Monday :)

Also, here is Duchess today.
I think her sides are actually her abdomen muscles weakening, but I definitely felt something kick so I really hope shes pregnant. But the reason i think that is because her sides are like two soft beach-balls that can be squished and bounced at will. I don't feel any baby's :(
I did however feel something kick against my hand when I was feeling the bottom of her stomach so...I still don't know...
She certainly knows how to dig though, shes completely dug up her pen and pulled up the tarp we had down.

Her eyes seem permanently bugged out of her head...Poor thing is still really nervous.

I...I-I dont know? Do goats play pretend pregnancy??
She better have at least one baby in there or i'll be upset...I got so excited thinking she was pregnant and now she might just only be fat!
But then again i felt a kick...

haha on the liver disease!!!!!:lol: I think she is pregnant. I hope she has more than one- that would be awesome. Is her udder filling up? It looked a little from one of the first pictures I saw, but it was hard to tell.

Her face looks like a dog- It's cute!

Well...Kinda. She is fighting a Mastitis infection so she was making an attempt to produce some form of liquid at one point. The vet comes tomorrow to check her over and will hopefully give me a definite yes or no on whether shes preggy or not.
This vet is going to make a fortune off me...
