Don't you just love the waiting game?

Back when my sheep were at my neighbor's farm, they would be bred and I would almost be like whoopty-doo, and I would barely even keep track of the days and one morning you'd find the first set of lambs on the ground. Then things picked up fast and lambs were being spit out left and right lol. I was lucky in that my ewe was always one of the first ones to breed, so she was always one of the first to lamb.

But this year...it's totally different. I think because I'm using a ram that I picked out that I paid for (well my mom bought him at first but then I paid her back when I got a job) and I'm so excited to see what kind of lambs I get

I'm excited for you, to have your goats kid They just need to speed the process up! lol

What days are they on now?

 

[Straw Hat Kikos]

No it's not fun! haha I really want them to kid on the weekend so I don't miss it.

Yep. These are does and buck that I picked out and have watched closely and done all I can to help them out and improve their health in order to get good kids. Now I just wait. I am so hoping for good kids and good stats!

Today is their actual due date. Feb 10th. So I'm hoping they do what Heidi did and kid on the actually due date.

I went out and took a bunch of pictures a few minutes ago. I'll be uploading them and putting them here in a few. Stay tuned.

Kidding stall a few weeks ago. BEFORE

Kidding stall now. PRESENT

Other kidding stall. It held all the hay including a round bale. BEFORE

D is the stall before I made it a kidding stall

Callie asking if she can come in because the dogs know they are not allowing in

D and Cal playing. Bunch of these but none turned out well

Kidding stall after I made it a kidding stall. PRESENT

You can see the round bale (or what's left) in the corner. I had nowhere else to put it so it stays there and that's where they've been getting their hay. Not from the hay feeder of course.

Callie asking to go in

That notch on his horn there, that's where he ripped it. Look how much it has grown

Everyone is lovely! This has probably been said somewhere before and I missed it, what kind of goat is Alana?

The goats are cute, Callie is adorable (so are the other dogs!), and those sheep are adorable too! I love Moses hair Pretty turkey, last toms we had tried to attack me all the time, they were huge, but fat, so they were easy to out run lol.
