I thought the #BabyGoatCountdown was probably over for the year.

Meanwhile, this goat who I've thought was about to go into labour every day for the last 2 weeks, is still not in labour.
This experiment with a lot less control over breeding time has taught me that even though it's a lot more work and time investment on my part, I like my control-freak methods better! Not knowing the due dates very well has been a bit stressful.
Still no babies. Labour is progressing. One goat is close, one goat is probably going to wait until 2am. #BabyGoatCountdown

Still no babies. It's going to be a 2am barn check night. SIGH. At least it's clear so I'll get some good stars, and possibly auroras?

#BabyGoatCountdown@sundogplanets meteor shower in the pre-dawn hours, if you're up that early/late.

My faves are still Marmite and Vegemite, especially the all black one whichever she is. -

#BabyGoatCountdownOne baby! From.... the goat who I didn't think was in labour at all yesterday. Figures.
He's a chonky replica of his mama. It's (finally!) going to be warm today so I'll get him out in the sun after my morning meetings.
Keeping an eye on the other 2 mamas who I was pretty sure were in labour yesterday, not sure what's up with them. But they are not nearly as grumpy about being in the barn today, so hopefully that'll help. #BabyGoatCountdown

@sundogplanets Another one! Welcome, little one, to this crazy world which unfortunately is not ruled by goats.

This latest baby was born sometime between 1:30am, when I got up to check on them, and 6:15am, when I got out to the barn for milking. No babies at 1:30am, but there WERE great stars just before moonrise, so I took advantage of already being awake and outside. (There were satellites, too, of course. Dammit.)

@sundogplanets that is absolutely gorgeous.
(except for the starlinks.)

@mustapipa This is pretty much at solar midnight, so this is as good as it gets for this time of year
