Spotz got her shave yesterday, to the best of our shavers ability, I left her some fur just because it is so cold outside. She seems to be doing just fine with her new haircut. Our other doe's are jealous though She has gotten a little bit bigger, and her udder is bigger as well. She has been getting very clingy to me these past 2 days, (more than usual), she has me scratch her back where she can no longer reach LOL. Our local feed store FINALLY stocked up on loose minerals, so we bought 4 bags for her. She loves them! We have her on 1 cup of grain per day, and free choice timothy grass hay (the only grass hay they sell in our area) and she gets the left over alfalfa that our other goats don't eat, during the day. Her baby is still moving around a lot in her, I think at this point, and being her first pregnancy, her baby is starting to get on her nerves LOL. We are getting her pen ready, and stocking up on the rest of kidding supplies. Our family, neighbors, and everyone at the nursing home are ANXIOUSLY awaiting her baby to enter the world! I will post updated pics later today, and hopefully get feedback on her shave job.
Here are pictures of Spotz today at 19 weeks pregnant. Our clippers don't do very well cutting through her winter coat, but we got it pretty short, it looks longer than it is.
Really dark, but a pic of her udder.
Top view, she looks a lot bigger in person than on this pic.
Not the best clipping job, we know, but hopefully it will be good enough!
And, here is one of her face...LOL!
Sorry the pics aren't that great, they were taken from my phone.
