Oh! He's so cute!I've been reading into it all day after I noticed her girl gits getting puffy and looking a little bulged out. She has some udder development but they aren't really bulging out with milk yet but I also did read that sometimes a goat doesn't until they've already had a kid so I can't go on udder size alone. I tried to find the ligaments by the tail and either I am not very good at that or they are already very soft/gone. She kept restlessly changing where she was laying down most of the day so I don't think its too much longer either way. I've had goats by-proxy with my in-laws herd but I never got to be a part of kidding or watch the doe's as close. There would just be kids in the filed one day/morning. I did bottle raise an abandoned kid once that ended up being his herd's billy goat, Luke. Luke's my sweet boy. (Not the father to Lola's baby.) I am so glad I was able to save him. I had intended on taking him home years ago when the pen got built but then my FIL's billy died and he became billy of the herd and I decided it would suck of me to take him from the herd and leave my FIL without a billy after my FIL already let me keep him there for over a year
Luke 4 years ago:
No, it doesn't sound like she's that far off. Let me know when they're born!
