Day 148 and all Carla wants to do is chew her cud........day 141 for Ellie and she appears to be meditating.....and who knows for Velma but I guarantee she is wider than she is tall......maybe if I go to the barn and throw myself on the ground and throw a tantrum carla will get the hint.....

If she were a human I'd give her red raspberry leaf tea

We have clear goo tonight and I noticed her whites of her eyes (read below why I noticed them) are a bit blood shot...but I think it will be another couple of days, she still has ligaments, not much but still a bit there.

DGS, I had a serious conversation with her this evening when we locked them in the barn and her in the kidding pen. She just rolled her eyes.

Issy, where were you when I was pregnant? lol....raspeberry tea huh instead of black cohosh (sp?). Maybe if we ever have another....I so want another....my clock is ticking......

yeah, only it didn't really help with me either

My boys all came when they felt like it

LOL

Red Raspberry leaf tea tones the uterus, so, unless they are already inclined to labor, it won't induce...

Red raspberry leaves are good for goats & rabbits & they Love them. Mine like them when there not due too, the boys also like them.

Don't worry there all coming soon. You'll have so many adorable babies to play with you'll have trouble getting other things done!

Katie, I have trouble getting my household chores done as it is....I spend too much time at the barn sitting on the spool, petting and loving on the goats! lol...

Day 149 and her rump looks a bit more steep, as she is a really level top lined goat. What is funny she was loving on a barn cat that she usually grabs by the back and shakes. She also has been stretching more today and lounging....I say not tomorrow but Thursday when it gets cold out again...
