Roll farms
Spot Master
Shawnee, the doe I bought during the "Splash of Color" sale, is due the 23rd.
This is the buck she's bred to....
(I imagine my dear Freeney will look a lot like him when he grows up.)
She was ultrasound confirmed bred / carrying twins in April.
If she has twin boys, or traditional kids, y'all will hear me pitching a fit...It doesn't matter how far away you live. If you hear screaming and feed cans being tossed around...well, you'll know I'm not a happy camper.
To make it more interesting....I have tickets to see Trace Adkins 2.5 hrs away on the 24th. Most of my boer does go late on or the day after their due dates.
I really wrestled w/ what to do...cancel going...induce her labor 1 day early...take my chances....
I *never* leave this farm for more than a few hours. This is a 'girls day out' w/ my bff....I need this.
So....I spoke to the vet and her former owner, who said she's never had kidding problems, and she is SURE she saw her bred, so the due date's not in question...she looks / acts like she's a week away....so we've decided to give Lut on Thurs. night.
She should kid no later than Sat. morning. I can be here to help deliver and then get the kids off to a good start before I leave late Sunday morning.
< this is me wanting spotted twin does...or spotted twin buck / doe combo....anything but traditionals. Please.
