Is this the same doe who retained one (potentially) because I was there to observe? Maybe it wasn't me? Or maybe I should come over and give her the "what for".
Day 167. Wow. Question - can you actually "go in" if she's not dialated, not pushing, etc?

Yep the same one. I think we're at day 163 but Im starting to seriously doubt the accuracy of breeding dates.
I did make an attempt at checking but she hit the ceiling.

Well, on one hand, that's a good thing. At least she's not 17 days post due.

OTOH, well... OTOH are four fingers and a thumb....

Don't it feel like maybe you want to pass those kids?
Goatie, we know you're ticked off over something I did,
But you've got me to the point where I'm flipping my lid,
I said Hey, Goat! Hey, Goat! Hey, hey, hey...

(Goat response)
Hooman, you can wait a while,
In out and out my shed like you're in a turnstile.
I've got you runnin' and it's makin' me smile!
Hoooooman, you can wait... a.... while.
Pony, that is great
