NO Kids

I am the only one here that hasn't had any kids born yet? My first doe due for the year is due anytime. I think she's just messing with me now!

You guys are are all torturing me with your adorable kids pics!!!

Guess I'll just keep waiting and waiting and waiting....

LOL all good things come to those who wait... isn't that how it goes? Soon and you'll be laughing and playing with your new kiddies just like everyone else, and it will be worth the wait.

My first one isn't until mid-May, and then another one (I hope!) in June. Long wait.

I don't have any kids yet either. Everyone is going to be tired of baby pictures by the time I post mine, but I'll do it anyway.

I NEVER get tired of seeing baby pics

I'll hopefully have my first baby goat born here around the first week of May. That's when I'll plan for anyway....I guess it could be later. And then in June we should have our first baby alpaca

Your not alone, ours have not kidded yet. We also have a ewe that hasn't lambed either. Everyone is snug in their kidding pens with NO BABIES!!! One doe is due anytime, the lamb..same. One FF is either day 150 today or anytime through the 27th. The breeder just knew there was activity during the week they were there. I'm sure one did not take and the other only has a teeny tiny udder and a tiny little belly..she is a nubian bred to a ND. The other one I have been scratching my head and suddenly remembered that in late Dec I thought she had gone into heat and I threw her in with the Bucks and told my son that if she wasn't bred that was her last chance. So, given the small belly she is developing she may be bred, but it will be late May. Soooo, here I sit not knowing who is gonna do what or when.
