My doe is showing signs of kidding today!! Her due date is actually tomorrow, but I never met any of my due dates. ;-) I can get my fingers all the way under her tail bone area and her udders are more full then they were yesterday. She is eating well, hasn't slowed down any,but seems more clingy today. Naturally, we have a winter storm moving in today! sigh...I tried to talk her into kidding yesterday when the weather was so pretty, but she just gave me silly looks. ha ha

So exciting when they bag up and get ready! I can hardly stay away from the barn anticipating. My last doe bagged up the day before she kidded, and I was wondering about her:) The others have all bagged up that day. And I do expect kids a day or two early.(Don't they love to kid on those bad days?) Good luck! Let us know.(I am also expecting kids again this week. This doe kidded two days early last time. She is due Thursday, but I was glad to see this morning that she is not bagged up yet, because I have a busy day today:)) mary
