I Hate Waiting!!

Not sure if many of you remember, but I bought a B&W doe this past October. We were all trying to figure out what breed she was. anyway, come to find out she was pregnant when i bought her. She is now bagged up with a tight udder, and lots of yucky discharge, and ligs are gone. She;s been yawning constantly since abour 3:30. Not sure why they yawn, but that always means mine are close to kidding. I am hoping tonight, but heck, I have been saying that for that last 3-4 days.

Here is a picture of her from last night. She was really wide, but has since dropped, and now is dragging the ground. LOL

She is too cute. I soooooo understand the waiting game. Mine kept fooling me too. She will go as soon as you give up on her, lol. I hope everything goes well for you and her. My doe gifted me with three adorable bucklings on saturday, all well and happy.

BTW: She was day 154!
