Well?

Well here is my other oberhasli doe lily and she is due today(I think).this is her 2nd freshening. She has milk in her udder but not full and she has had a little mucus(white) for a couple of days not much just like a penny size stuff that I saw, her ligaments are soft but still there and you have to really look to find.I can put my fingers all the way around her tailhead but I have been able to do that for a while but now i can put my hand all the way around her spine on her rump( I know I make no sense but that is the only way I could think of to word it).
Do you think my due date is right or am off?
Here are some pics.

Thanks Marisa

Neither of my obie does that have kidded so far filled before kidding. We could tell they were going to kid based on how they were acting.

I have a 3/4 Ober yearling who showed a little white mucus when I did the morning chores, but wasn't acting like she was in labor. I checked around noon, still no signs. Went down to do evening chores and found a little buckling almost dried off and running around. So all I can say, is keep a close eye on her, LOL!

Marisa she does look pretty close from looking at her vulva but I can't say how close. I would say she could go any time if her vulva and ligs are any sign. She sure is a pretty girl .

Hope you get those kids soon!
