Sweetened's 2015 Kidding thread (Last arrival 2/23)

[Pearce Pastures]

Boys or girls? Hmmmm...well probably the OPPOSITE of whatever you are hoping for

 

[Sweetened]

Awh! Thanks goatgurl, do you have a thread started? Link here if so.

Im expecting boys but would like some girls. Our farm is 3-0 boys for live births on the farm, and 4-1 boys to girls if you include the stillborns last year! Tootsie gave a buckling last year as well before i bought her, so i think theres a run on boys here lol.

 

[Southern by choice]

twins .... boys

i want to be wrong on this!

 

[Sweetened]

My guess is single buckling again, so twins would be alright anyway.

Toosie has discharge, im somewhat worried she will kid before the 145 day :/ theres a very violent and active kid in there though, HUGE movement.

Rebedded the kidding pen, cut up feed bags for goopy kid catching, used other feedbags to make hanging feeders for kidding pen.

I dont think anyone will be kidding tonight

Gretels ligs are still prominent, but she is spacey, small bit of white discharge, little faster breathing. Some interest in food but ligs aaaall the way there. Doe code in action. Wheres my coffee...

 

[goats&moregoats]

Gretel day 146: ligs are spongey this morning, laying down makes her breathe hard, i think because of how large she is. Eating isnt her top priority but no more discharge, udder still has a way to go.

Gladys, day 145, will be a challenge to train to milk! She is sick of me touching her udder and checking her ligs. Udder is more rogid but still not tight, getting there. Ligs are firm.

Sorry they are sideways again. Im guessing twins, maybe on valentines day, so day 152. Remember, this girl is 260lbs not pregnant, shes huge!

What are your predictions?
