This summer I'm going to let one of my girls go broody.... don't know whether I should let the americauna girl or my black rock.... both have frequently been attempting to sit on eggs.... these chicks I ended up purchasing today because I really want more color in my flock when it comes to eggs and stuff lol.. I can't wait to see their eggs when the are older !!!
I swear everyday for the past week I find myself chanting "it's almost time.... it has to be..... how can she hold on this long....." from what I can tell she has a beautiful udder if I decide to milk her ( if I could get her to stand) it would be easy he teats aren't down by her knees or pointed sideways... right now her udder is tight and bright pink and her teats are swollen.... and he back end is starting to hollow out a bit..... so it has to be soon right???

And @luvmypets I'm way past the three week mark by now lol! We expected her at the beginning of February 
It's been a long wait..... I don't think I'm gonna last.... just gonna focus on keeping my chicks happy and healthy now, instead of driving myself mental fretting about the goat lol ( that's what I'm saying now but just give it a day and I'll be back on the goat
)

C'mon Newton! 
It's "udderly" ridiculous that she should have a full blown "utter" and not have babies to use that milk... I'm sometime dyslexic
