Well I guess she was due soon after I was wondering and worrying if she was actually pregnant. I checked on her around 2 pm went out and when I got back at 6:30 I heard a squeaky noise and found a tiny cute little girl.
Ariel had no problems and needed no help :) I hate to give Jim a big head but... yes you were right :p
I am just happy I did not have to stick my hands up there. I did have the supplies ready except for the iodine. One feed store is out and the other does not carry it. I tied her cord with some dental floss. Can I use people iodine? Also one novice question. Are goats born with their true eye color or do they change like puppies and kittens do?
I know the rules and here are her pictures:

You can use people iodine, yes. It will probably be 1%, but it's better than nothing.

her eyes will probably be the same color as momma's. They do change a bit, and slowly. She's a cutie! Congrats!
