HUGE goats at HAZY DAY NUBIANS!

Warning!! This could make you feel sick!! Here is an update to anyone wanting to know what is going on at my place!!
(Please See my webpage to see a picture to each name.)

~In order of due dates~

Molly- is due in 12 days! She isn't huge by any means but is looking like she could hold on to those kids for a few more weeks! I am only seeing a single kid from her. I don't have a stone date on her, but I seen them breeding on Aug 8.

Nelly- LOOKS READY TO KID! She is due Feb 28, and looks bigger then all the other goats! She is always full and to me should be culled as all she does is eat! Even in the summer the does will go eat from 9 am till 4 pm and guess who will be at the hay right after a good drink??? She looks in really good and I am hoping for 3 kids from her. No more then 3 but she does look really big!

Beth- Is just starting to dry up after a 10 month milking time! She is always good and fat, but milking has kept her under 200 pounds! She is now having a happy dry up time to make food for babies. She does love milking and has been a little not herself now that she isn't being milked Beth is due Feb 29 ,08

Rihanna- Tonight looks really bred! She is due on March 3. Tonight when she jumped up to eat in the stand, I could really see her bump! I do worry about her udder as it was very bad this year and I don't want it to grow anymore!!

Faith- My only doe who will be having fully papered kids is Due March 19! I will be keeping kids away from her and ALL MILK! She has CAE or Water on the knees, and I have all the milk ready for them and am hoping for a doeling so I can sell this doe.

Lily- Is gonna be my first doe to be born here and kid here! I can't wait to see her kids! She was bred to a $70.00 per breeding buck and is only 50% Alpine! I went crazy on her as I need a nice 4-H kid! (Plus my friends have 2 other does who we fight over who is better! My doe took #1 and they hate her for that!! So now the kids from these does will be fighting for top placing!) She doesn't look to bred as she still have along way to go! But her side is starting to get a bump!

Taffy- well stupid Taffy was to be due on Feb 28, but well she is very fat so had a very hard time getting preggo! So well she is now due May 20ish

Thats about all I will keep you updated with pictures!! Thanks for reading!!!
