Oh I got a measuring stick in so I'll be able to get accurate heights! So excited to try it out. Work has been crazy busy so I haven't been able to try to get heights at all, my measuring stick just came in today so I'll give it a go either tomorrow evening or Saturday morning at milking

I am waiting on my Anna to kid. Her ligaments have been gone since 3am and her udder is very full. I can wrap my fingers around her railhead and almost touch together.

@MiniSilkys congrats! Hopefully she has them soon hoping for healthy happy doelings (unless you want bucklings then hoping for those lol)
Are you checking for ligaments here? Wrapping your finger around the tail head is not always the most reliable

I found a doeling when I went out at 7 this morning. Anna had her mostly cleaned off. The baby was in a corner screaming. Mama was stuffing her mouth. I cleaned up the afterbirth and then cleaned baby's legs. Anna finally stood with her front feet on a brick and I made sure milk was flowing. I had to take my grandma to her mammogram at the hospital but I waited until I saw the baby eat. She weighed 3.3 lbs and looks just like her ma.
