Anyone wanting on kidding this week?

Six does left to kid this month and one next month (the 6th). There is a slim chance Crocus is due in mid-June, but I'm not finding any indication of mammary development (FF yearling) and when I bump no indication of a pregnancy.
5 of the six does this month are does our polled Nubian bred from another herd. They are here to kid out. There were three Nubians, three Alpines and a Boer doe. One Nubian had triplets (2 b, 1 g) and is doing very well with them. The Boer had twins (was carrying triplets initially though-1 b, 1g). The other two Nubians had due dates of the 12 and 13th and I think both may have recycled. No due dates on the Alpines. The buck had a marking harness but the black did not show up well and it didn't fit all that snugly.
Our Saanen doe I brought home last November is due to our Boer/Saanen buck on the 25th. The Alpine doe I brought home in November is due May 6th, to our Boer buck.

Well 1 %boer doe due who knows when udder is already well developed
3 full boers who might be due in a month
1 alpine due in 5 monthes
and one %boer who is showing absolutely nothing

We have 11 does due around the 24 of april.We put the bucks in with them so am not sure of the exact due dates.The are all huge with full udders and sunken in spots on each side of their tail.Only one has ever kidded before.There are 6 boers bred to a Kiko buck and 5 Kiko|Boers bred to a full blood Boer buck.My little doe that was mutilated by the dog is still hanging in there and seems to be healing well.Can't wait to see the babies.I know they are all miserable it has been hotter than normal high 80's almost 90 sun.

Trinity had her baby Friday afternoon- 11.5 lb (!) black and white buckling. I'm letting the does raise bucklings this year. Trin is 3rd freshener and this is the first baby she's raised. She's a great momma but is terrorizing ANYTHING that gets near her precious darling- she picked up a barn cat by the back and threw it across the stall. Even the chickens get butted.
Trixie looks like she'll kid Tuesday. Swan is due on Tuesday too but I think she'll wait.

Everyone that showed pictures, your goats are BEAUTIRUL! We have a 1 1/2 year old fullblood doe that will be a second freshner when this baby comes, she is really big, and looks like she might have twins this time, she had a single buckling last time, but she is much bigger this time. She is starting to get a full udder, and she is VERY poochy in her vulva. Can't wait for her to have her baby/babies. Well see ya, bye.

I don't want to jinx it...Mermaid is acting, well, strange. My son is monitoring her for me...I'm at work, dang it!

Fingers Crossed...

This is day 154 for our Alpine...a first-timer. We also have a Togg/Nubian and an Oberhasli due, both first-timers...
Our Angora, you know, those fragile, hard-to-raise goats kidded all by herself, cleaned him off and presented us with a dry happy kid (completely by surprise) without so much as a bleat...and here we wait on our dairy girls....

Last year's doe presented us with twins - the first full breech, the second head-only, both legs back (both survived, but momma only made it through weaning =( ) ...we're hoping that this is an easy year...

I have 1 pygmy due anytime I think. She was given to us not in good shape, they just let them roam in the yard and pasture. She has never kidded, she now has an udder and teats and is swollen and ligaments are mushy. I brought her up to the birthing sweet and shaved her but now I think she was faking. Nothing else has happened. I'm hoping soon, this will be her first and mine. I also have a South African X that is due next month. Good luck to everyone!

Ok well Ramsey Allen's ligaments are start to get looser as are Saharas.....maybe babys soon?
