The doe code is in full force today. Feeder is full, open the door to the barn (since it's beautiful out again today!), all the girls are standing there, munching away, thin as can be. I picture the conversation to be something like: "SHH! She's coming, hide them." Door opens. "Oh heeeey!"

Buggers.

Wandered in today to check water and fill the feeder and saw Tootsie and her tiny black teats were resembling the udder I remember: big, thick handles! She's started putting some milk in there now too, and she's the last on the list, with Flora, to go! That girl produces -a lot- of milk (3/4 gallon as a FF, I don't supplement for milk production), so I think it'll take her a bit to fill it all up! :fl Good things coming if I can just wait them out! Tootsie and Gretel both look significantly thinner than before, so I think they've shifted their kids up their spines again. Weather's been nicer, and that's when they seem to thin down a bit -- I think they're also not stuffing their faces as much since they're not cold.
