Liberty farm mare about to foal!

[Batgirl]

I am currently watching my internet dating profile, an empty stable and a weird shaped goat, I am starting to think I may have gone soft in the head!

Partic as I am not interested in kids in the slightest! lol

 

[MrVelvet]

I have the smartwifes guide to yorkshire puds............... so what does that make me? hahaha

 

[Bettyboo222]

Hope she is back soon

A Lancashire man who can cook Yorkshire Puds?

 

[penhwnllys_stardust]

Goat looks like she could go any minute

 

[goodtimes]

The goat looks like it could pop any minute!

 

[SusannaF]

OMG!!!
It's going to explode !

Imagine if it was just wind after all


God, it looks painful. Who'd be a pregnant goat?

 

[SusannaF]

Feed's down! Just as the contractions were getting intense!

 

[Batgirl]

Wouldn't want to light a match if it was wind!

Oops, confused by Mr

Maybe that's why the feed has gone down?

If you'd asked me 15 minutes ago how much I needed to watch a goat give birth, I'd have looked at you like you were daft. NOW of course I'm cursing the lost feed. I just have to see that poor animal deflate somehow.

 

[jojo5]

has anyone else lost the goat screen? just when things might have been about to happen!

 

[The-mad-cat-lady]

Gone

 

[Batgirl]

Yup, am now watching and empty stable and a blue screen

 

[Square]

The owner has turned the camera off for a bit

 

[Dab]

Yep, i've also lost the feed....just when things were getting interesting!!!!

 

[Spiritedly]

OMG...she's given birth to .....people

 

[Batgirl]

Its back with peoples! In PJs?

 

[Dab]

Its back on and people are in there....does this mean things are about to happen????

 

[neddymad]

I can't see anything what am I doing wrong

 

[Batgirl]

I can't see anything what am I doing wrong

Wait a while, it can take a bit for the 'Farm' screen to disappear

 

[Enfys]

I can't see anything what am I doing wrong

If that little one is anything like some of my goats have been she's been waiting for someone to come in and hold her hoof, mine always waited for me. I am rather pleased there is no sound as goats don't half scream sometimes!

Does that make you a doula or a midwife?

I'm not surprised they scream, looking at the size of her.

 

[Spiritedly]

Thought they were going to try and squeeze or knock it out then

Does it really take that many people to deliver a pygmy goat? Poor thing can't even move in there. It seems to be a marestare trait - interfere with the birth as much as possible, and yes, I know I don't have to watch......

 

[myhorsefred]

I wish that woman would stop scratching the goats back that vigourously! Little strokes, yes. Scratch, no!

... but we on the other side of the camera don't really know the whys and wherefores of the live situation.

If this was my goat, I'd be close at hand too, some of these multiple births (and I'm only guessing that there is more than one in there) get themselves in a right tangle.

Why? Maybe the goat likes it? She doesn't look as if she is objecting, she'd make it clear if she wasn't happy.

I have a mare that loves her bum to be really scratched with a metal curry comb.

I'm sure you're right it just seems that particularly with the horses it generally isn't left to nature and it begins to look more like a cultural thing??
