Secrets Kidded!!! Kid pictures down pg3...

Secrets is another one of my homebred does from last year. She is much rounder than Cha-Cha so I think there's definitely twins in there. She's not a huge doe but she is bigger than Cha-Cha too. So she should be good to go without much trouble. Her udder is already bigger than Cha-Cha's was and she's still got ligaments. She was bred twice to River so she could be on 146 today being due Wednesday or she could be on 138 and due 4-2. I believe the latter. She's been having some clear discharge too. Started stalling her yesterday and she was none too thilled about it. She's anything but friendly so all interactions she thinks are going to bode badly for her. So she has a ways to go in learning that the stalling means special treatment. Lots of extra hay, sweet feed mix and no one to try to take it from you.

Anyway, I've got to do an udder clip on her yet so I may get around to that this weekend. Most likely tomorrow. Photos of her udder to follow. I may try to get some round belly pics today if I can. She's the last one till mid May and I'm ready for the break. I can't wait to see her udder and what she has. Think pink!

 

Re: Secrets turn... Day 146 or 138

Thank you!

Here's some piccies from this afternoon...
Here she is on the right next to Raven who was just bred recently and isn't showing yet.


Standing in the barn...


Standing uphill, she refused to let me get a decent rear photo...






Any guesses?

She is quite round. I do agree, I think she's on 138 too. All of my does who'd been bred like that, about a week apart, all kidded by the second date. So I'm sure she'll follow in those girl's paths. Fine by me. I have a birthday party planned tomorrow for my 2 children so I can't really have her kidding then. Shhhhh.... don't let her hear that or she'll be sure to drop them then!

I'd prefer all girls really. We've had a very buck year so the more girls the merrier.

Her dam's name is Chamber Pot, so I named her Chamber of Secrets (out of the Harry Potter series). She's Secrets for a call name.

 

Re: Secrets turn... Day 144

Secrets is now on day 144, I have the flu and have been out of commission for 3 days now. Going to the doctor today since 3 days of steady fevers is not good, so hopefully I'll get an antibiotic to make me better. I do hope she holds out till I'm feeling better. I've felt so incredibly horrible. Have been bed ridden. I finally broke my fever today with some Ibuprophen so I'm ok for right now, but don't know how long that'll last.

Secrets udder is getting bigger, sorry no pics. I'll hopefully get some before she kids though provided I get some medicine and feel better soon. Just wanted to let everyone know I'm still around just sick. Hope we get twin does after I'm better.

 

Re: Secrets turn... Day 144 & I have the flu

Thank you. I hope to feel better soon.

 

Re: Secrets turn... Day 144 & I have the flu

Going tomorrow to the doctor. Secrets ligs are dropping hubby said. I haven't been down since this AM to see the goats. I think I may go down here in a few minutes since I feel ok right now. That changes fast though when another fever pops up and takes me down. So hopefully we'll get this taken care of tomorrow.

 

Re: Secrets turn... Day 144 & I have the flu

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate all the well wishes. :grouphug:

Her ligaments are lower and her udder is getting bigger but so far we're not quite there yet. Hope she waits till after tomorrow so I can see the doctor first.
