I finally got some pictures!! I've been bringing both girls in every few days or so for a handful of grain and some milk stand training. Mika, who is usually the super timid one who's wary of everything, jumps straight up no problem. Suki on the other hand is resisting so much I decided to put off her training until after kidding, as I'm worried about stressing her. She literally lies down in protest when I try to guide her up there, lol! Goats are so silly.
So anyway, here they are having a treat - it was the perfect opportunity for some quick pics. Except Mika was standing so weird. She gets super awkward with her legs when she's on the stand, like she's afraid she'll fall off, lol.
Here is miss Mika's tiny udder, her huge belly, and her backside. I swear this girl is twice as wide as she was a week ago!
And here is little Suki's udder for comparison. They're still fluffy so you can't tell as much from the pictures as I thought you'd be able to. But just for the heck of it I thought I'd post it anyway.
I guess you can sort of tell a little bit.
Looks like one of Mika's teats is bigger than the other one. Maybe they'll even out a bit later?
Also, their coats look a little bit rough to me. Any ideas? They get Purina Wind and Rain free choice and I've been giving them Replamin about every two weeks. Maybe I should give Replamin more frequently for a bit? Once or twice a week maybe until they kid? Just thinking. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I want to do everything I can to help them be ready for kidding.
