Looks like my bet was a good one. Stitch is showing the first signs of labor. She's been up and down, up and down. I thought it might just be nerves with the wind and the excitement from yesterday, but while she was lying down, I watched her poop. That's not a normal goat behavior. She's adjusting.
So, I am getting ready for another night of kidding. J is at work until late, so the boys and I will be handling this one on our own. We can do it. I only wish the weather were a little more cooperative. Not only is it cold, but it's windy - blow your hat off your head windy. Not pleasant weather to be sitting vigil while a goat decides when to kid. But this is Stitch's first time and I plan to be there with her all the way. Better put the coffee on, I have a feeling this is going to be a long cold night.
