~ Betty's Kidding thread ~ SHE IS!

[SmallFarmGirl]

SmallFarmGirl,
Don't feel silly. Your doe is who should feel silly! I would defintaly reccomend a biotracking test for Betty Bop. That way you will know for sure if you should be expecting kids or not. I can only imagine how you feel getting your hopes up for kids only to be told by us that she is not pregnant.
Take Care Now.

Thanks ya'll! I'm going to wait and see.

Do you think you will get a pregnancy test taken on Betty?

hmmm... I don't want to stress her out and bring her to the vet. I'm just going to wait....

Could you get the vet to come to you to check Betty out?

No she does not travel. She said,"I'll be glad to give the shots but, you got to bring them to me."
She's very nice but, she won't come to me....

Sounds like you need to find another vet option then. If you ever had an emergency you would be up crap creek. I would prefer a vet that would make farm visits. Vermillionfarms(I think that was the name) is in the same state you are in, maybe they can give you a vet recommmendation.

Thanks. Well I'm just going to wait and see....

Your stronger than I am then, there is no way I could just wait and see! I like knowing when/if a doe is due! I've got a while before I'll have does ready to have babies though!

No reason to feel silly, the week before Elsie went into the kidding pen, I had Brandy in there, expecting to have babies any day. She was fat, even had discharge that looked like a plug. She apparently was in heat and was never bred. It happens to all of us, it is how we learn.

Could she be 4 months into it and not have an udder yet????

What date did you get them from the breeder?? Wasn't it in early December sometime? I am asking because you could take that date and add 145 to 155 days from that date and that would be the latest date she could kid. And then of course anytime from now until then could be a "possible due date" for her too. So you almost have a 3 month window of possible due dates, if it was early December when you got them.
