Gooseberry is in the kidding stall and will probably kid while I am at work this morning/ Ugg!! I hate when I miss all the good stuff!

Oh, geez! I'm there with you on missing it. So sorry, but at least you will come home to new kids! Be sure to get pictures! We're all such picture addicts here! Hope everything goes well and you get plenty of pink!

I know the feeling too. I have three due on March 6th-8th and I know I will be working when they kid I have pics and a kidding thread up and two of them are already building their udders and I can't get the pics from my phone to the computer! UGH! Good luck on the kids, thinking PINK

No kids yet!!!!! She is not very happy with me, but she is staying in the stall because there are no kids yet! She has lost her plug, she is due on the 21st, and it was about 30 degrees last night. I keep checking on her, and she loves the attention, but would really llike to be out in the field with her buddies. Uhhhh, no! I want no kids born in the field if I can help it!

Doe Code!!!!! I really think Gooseberry just likes the heat lamp!!! I set my alarm to check on her multiple times last night. She's grunting, discharge, pawing, etc. All the signs, although I noticed her tail is not up today like it was the last several days. I thought I recognized the signs.....but she has fooled me! This picture does not do her justice. She is ginormous!

Pictures never do it justice They always look bigger in person!

Any udder changes?

 

[dhansen]

Her udder is hard and very full. She can barely move she is so big. She still doesn't look like she is in active labor, but she's had me fooled the last few days!!!!It is going to be 64 degrees today and sunny so out she goes with the rest of the gang. I will close off the big pasture. I think she may need help from my LDG with cleaning up the kids since I will most likely be at work. She has two sets of quads in the past, several triplets and one set of twins.
