Such very round goats.
Such intense derpy-ness.
It's also a Good Cloud Day, which is excellent. New Zealand has great clouds, but the huge prairie sky is my favourite!
@sundogplanets does your dog seem to have a sense when their goats are getting ready to birth?

The #BabyGoatCountdown is down to 2 days, so tonight will be the first 2am barn check. Mostly just because I have 5 goats all due on Thursday, so the odds are better that someone will be a little earlier. Nobody looked imminent, and it's not super cold (this is WAY less stressful than kidding time when it's -25C out!) But a 2am check seems like a good idea tonight.

@sundogplanets I have missed your farm updates. I'm glad you returned safely home

The only downside to the much warmer temperatures for #BabyGoatCountdown this year is that the babies won't need ear-warmers made from socks.

@sundogplanets
Just because they don’t need them, doesn’t mean they can’t have them.

@sundogplanets I remember those days. Baby monitor in the barn, light and interrupted sleep. My goat husbandry book (no internet then, mostly) said, “look for unusual behavior” to know the time is near. But, staring hard at goats for hours, there is a lot of unusual behavior.
