I think today is the day. Her ligaments are almost gone and she did a full squat when I patted her udder....from behind, the biggest no-no.
Gotta gather my stuff together in one place and finish setting up the heat lamp. Gotta get one more bale of straw into the stall. Gotta go boil some water!!!
It is not going to be any minute, I'm thinking a little later today. But the heat lamp is going up soon. It is raw out there today.

I just did another check and have decided tomorrow is the day. Of course, that will probably change with the next check! Her belly is even rounder, if that is possible. I'll take some pics later. The guinea must be obsessed with her. He often roosts right over her. She was in a completely different area last night and he still managed to poop on her ears. Gotta go clean her up. Anyone with guineas and goats knows that guinea poo is RANK! If I could catch him, he'd be gone. He beats up on my hens, too. Thank goodness I only got three guineas and he is the last of them.

Since you said today's the day, then changed to tomorrow she'll go in a week.

guineas are scary to me. I grew up around them as a kid. My brothers told me they had skeleton heads cus the mothers tried to eat them when they were born, head first. If the baby got away before she got past the neck then it lived. And it looked like that.
