This is Ethel she's 3. Never kidded. I didn't think the buck got to her, I never noticed her in heat, never saw him interested in her. She has gained weight and has been badging up about 3 weeks. Ligaments feel more relaxed, now this discharge.. So i think i was wrong lol. Is this the right color?? Worried that it looks greenish..

I can't see the greenish color but if she is acting "normal" and has no temperature I would suspect is is just normal discharge ( which can go on for days) look for either clear glistening or a amber discharge.....that puts you in watch mode...do you have a due date time frame?

With that udder I'd say that she's definitely pregnant, lol! That discharge could just be the mucous plug, and could be on and off for a month or so - or could be 45 minutes before labor. (lot of help, huh?) Watch for a long, slimy discharge that will precede labor and keep track of her ligaments.

Good luck with the upcoming baby(ies)!

Yep. It will usually be several inches long. So, they like a night life and you didn't stay up! :lol: The bag will normally tighten up and the teats will point more than hang. Then the fun begins.
