We are in North Central Texas, about 2 hours from Fort Worth/Dallas. Come on you know you want to see pictures! Can't hurt, much, to see pictures! Could throw in a wether as a friend!

No, I am not an enabler... ok, yes I am an enabler.

You are on the opposite side of the US from me. It probably wont work I am in UP UP UP State NY.

Well if that isn't a bummer... not that you live way the heck upstate NY, well that too, but the little bucks were practicing how to be civil, charming and how to pack a suitcase... no, the grain does not go in the pockets of the suitcase. Everyone knows grain goes in a bag and is considered carryon. Getting them past TSA might be another story. Got to work on them walking on just their hind legs.

I'm sure there are nice Nigi folks in your part of the grand US.

lol. There are not many Nigerian Dwarf breeders up here actually. I am mainly in Togg., Alpine, pygmy and Lamancha territory.


Tippy's ligs are almost gone, they have been getting softer and harder to find progressively throughout the day.

The guy that I got my Nubians from also has Nigerians.

Tin Roof Dairy in Virginia.

He has nice goats.

It has been 4 days since the last pictures.... How is she doing?

Any progress?

Sorry, Not much to report yet. Ligs dissapeared then one came back a little. She is displaying nesting behavior as of the last few days and today when I checked on her she was hiding out in the shelter and finally got up and came out. She seems unable to hold her tail up by this morning as well. I attempted to hold her tail up slightly to take a picture.

The Problem I seem to have found is the my notebook and my calender dates seem incorrect. I calendar had Willow bred date as 12/16/2012 with an approx kid date of 5/15/2012. My notebook said she was due on Mother's Day. Willow kidded on mothers day. My Calendar had Tippy bred on 1/4/2012 with a kidding date of 6/2/2012. My notebook said she was due 18 days after Willow. Which would put her at a kid date of today.

Either way she could go anytime. What do you all think? A few more days?

 

[cindyg]

That sure looks like anytime to me!

Her udder is more full tonight. I don't have to go into work until 11pm tommorrow night. Maybe she will allow me to be present if she goes soon. Then I have a 3 hour shift on Saturday which will put me out of the house from 1030a-230p.Crossing fingers that she doesn't go then!
