The Toaster's about to pop

Toast was in with the buck for a month starting January 11. He bred her several times on the 12th. Stay tuned for another dramatic Doe Code thread.

Looks like she's wondering what you got her into?
Poor baby, I bet she'll be glad when she pop's.

She'll be incredibly happy to have babies. She stole all my bottle babies last year when she was in milk.

Here she is today mimicking a beached whale.

Well I managed to get her feet trimmed today. Usually she is very cooperative, not today! Chock it up to pregnancy hormones. She was bucking and kicking and yelling like crazy. I usually use a carpet knife but she was just too wild. I ended up using garden clippers and then finishing the job with an electric sander that the hubby conveniently left on the milk stand. Then wrapped her bad leg in self sticking sport wrap. (she hyperextends it from having not been trimmed when I first got her and the habit has proven difficult to break)
