"First of the Month" Tulip

I'm linking up to Barn Hop #56 &
Murrieta 365: First of the Month - Round Two:
Subject: My Kinder Dairy Doe, Tulip




Tulip is 4 months pregnant now... and she is really gettin BIG, I'm thinkin shes got 3 in there, we will see. I see & feel her babies move & kick all the time, its so cool! Shes pretty good about letting me touch the sides of her belly, especially when shes busy eatin, lol. I've started puttin her on the milk stand to eat her grain so I know shes gettin her fair share & plenty for the babies growin in her belly, she gets 1 soup can of sweet feed mornin & evenin, in about a week I'll give her 2 soup cans. I trimmed her hooves on 3 30 12, I'll check them 1 more time as her due date gets closer & I dewormed her last week. If you would really like to watch her grow I'm gonna post pics the beginning of every week.

* Tulip was bred on Dec. 11, 2010. She is due to kid May 4 (146th day) - May 8 (150 day). The beginning of each month I'll take pics of her, so you can watch her grow, kid & mother her kids... LinkThis is gonna be exciting. This is all new to me so I'm learning as I go. If you have any advice you think I need to know, please feel free to share :) Heres a pic. of her at 1 month , 2 months & 3 months

** I have another Doe pregnant... Star, (she is Tulips daughter). Stop back in sometimes this week to read about her.

    So exciting! Will you be vaccinating? I need to read up on when to do it so the kids will get the immunity too.
