Snow White - due 1/1/14 already HUGE!
5
Hey everyone, I haven't been on much, but hopefully I can start getting on here more when things settle down. We've been busy working on our home, and the everyday stuff has really kept us busy.
Snow White is our baby, we adore her <even though she's mean to the other goats!>.
Our first goat, and this is her 5th pregnancy.
She has had twins 2x, single 1x, and last year she had triplets. Last 2 kidding's have been HUGE babies.
She has 7 weeks left and she is already HUGE. Very comparable to a week before she was due last time!
Her udder never did shrink back up completely this last time around, but I can definitely tell it's starting to take some form.
She still trudges along, still bullies everyone.
This is her belly/udder a week before she kidded her triplets:

This is her belly/udder as of yesterday & 7 weeks before she is due!

Everyone keeps telling me she isn't carrying twins, she is carrying a whole herd in there
:help:We're getting there on the house. Just little things we've been taking our time doing a little here and there. I was photographing a couple of horse sales, so I had to put everything on hold while I was doing that.
We did get carpet in and brought everything in from the storage pod, of course it's been real fun trying to organize and put things away lol as soon as I get it a little more organized I'll get pics
Biggest things we have left to do is to make a cabinet for the water heater, and paint the bathrooms, a little painting left to do in the kitchen <new cabinets and wall by the sink>.
Oh wow, I see what you mean! If that was me I would want (getting to do it is another thing) to have an ultra sound done, just so I would know. Not that I could afford one, but I would want one...lol Hope all are born healthy and strong!

WHOA!!!! She's definitely got a whole herd in there!! I'd be ready to induce her if she goes down in the remaining 6-7 weeks... we almost had to induce one of our does last year before kidding triplets, as she got so huge for so long that she didn't want to move anymore! I think we may have to do that this year, as she looks about like Snow White now, and is already not wanting to go outside! She only has 3 1/2 weeks though... Best of luck with Snow White! I would say she has 4....
Oh my. She is huge!!! I say 4-5
Oh my! That is one pregnant goat! I sincerely hope I'm wrong, but I'm thinking quads.

Is there something wrong with quads/ a lot of babies in general??Oh my! That is one pregnant goat!
I don't think there's anything wrong with them exactly, it's just that quads are a lot for a mother to feed and take care of.
And poor girl! She's unbelievably huge!
Can goats have litters? She is pleasantly "plump" lol....

Oh yeah! Goats can have up to 6 kids at a time. I've never heard of sextuplets, but I have read about a number of times when does delivers quads or quints.Can goats have litters?
