I think Ill just die now... go out and check her, shes laying down, glazed look, breathing awkwardly, small grunts. Her vulva is wide open from the pressure in there, goopy discharge so I think to myself, FINALLY. Go grab the play pen for MY kid (who was 10 days late, look whos talking), do a couple other things, wander it over there and shes up, munching hay, dry as can be back there.

If you'll excuse me, im off to find a spoon to do myself in with.

I need input...

Daisy kidded January 8th. Assuming that she is due any time soon considering her ligs have been GONE for 5 days now, this puts her having cycled 1-2 weeks after kidding... is that even POSSIBLE?! NO WONDER I didnt notice. That would mean, essentially, she bred the day or two after being let out into the doe pen OR one of the bucklings crawled in with her, which I remember having chased him out of there because he was under the heat lamp. Either way, this means a chance for blue eyed babies!

If bred at 1 week postpartum, she would be day 150 with Dot. At 2 weeks, her 145 would be Wednesday. At 3 weeks it'd be the 22nd. Why on earth would she go without ligs that long if it wasnt on the closer side?

:he

Well its WORKING

:barnie

More pluggy discharge. Apperently that girl has a huge one. She hangs so low. Noticed her bag filling back out, heavier near the teats than it was. She is so crammed in there, I can see kid movement along her spine above her rumen on the left hand side. But, right so, like 2 weeks yet right? *sigh*

Dot had a bit of plugginess but no movement on ligs again. Thought she was losing them a few days ago, but turns out it was ME losing something.

Prepping for another night of disappointment.
