Your tips ...Claire-SO sweet of you to comment back. Your tips are great. Yes, Fiasco Farm, the Goat Link and a few others are a favorite and I pretty much know the kidding section of Fiasco Farms' site by heart. We have assisted many dogs and cats with birth, but we are so new to the world of goats! I just want to do what's best for her but let nature take its course. <br />And yes, we have been putting China up in her kidding barn overnight for the last, say, 2 weeks. She is a stubborn girl!<br />As far as the ligs go, I had two different spots that i was feeling with no way to figure out which one is the right one. I will tell you that her tail looks like it's almost separated from her back-I can just about touch my fingers across it, if I wrap them around. <br />Her udder used to be a smallish flabby pouch when we welcomed her on the farm in October, and lately it has grown about 4 times that size. She is not a dairy goat so I know it won't get huge, but compared to what it was a few months ago, it has grown greatly. She has also gotten extra sensitive about us touching it to check it!<br />I am sorry for the long comment-I am not sure how to email you back through blogger without leaving a comment.<br />Thanks again for the encouragement. I just heard the weather forecast this morning and it looks like we have a front coming through this weekend. I am keeping my fingers crossed.sunset pines farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04826327863570459271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-68704305388847800772010-02-02T09:59:24.172-04:002010-02-02T09:59:24.172-04:00Oh, this is too funny.

Whenever he even thought about doing something naughty, he'd get a guilty look on his face -- see me looking at him, then slink away. He was a wonderful, funny dog!<br /><br />Also, I've wanted to write and compliment you on your yarns. I checked out your blog for the first time about a month ago and when I saw the pics, I was truly blown away. The color combinations and textures are really amazing. Good job!<br /><br />I don't have a blog yet. We are just getting started with our small farm on 12 acres in Northern California. We have two goats, two cats, and 3 dogs. More to critters to follow.<br /><br />Best, NancyNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10499685451925801840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-77783498402419621632010-01-30T19:38:44.970-04:002010-01-30T19:38:44.970-04:00It is only natural, SOME ONE left them for him.

He would never had bothered them, otherwise.<br /><br />I had checked into adoping a greyhound and they wanted thousands of dollars for dogs that no longer ran.

We often get the "who? me? I didn't do anything" look from our dog as well. I guess dogs will be dogs.
