Kidding and Lambing Contest! Win $25!

Kidding and Lambing Contest begins today and runs thru January 31st 2010 11.59 pm. Guess correctly to win a $25.00 gift certificate to our etsy store! We have 18 does and ewes pregnant!

Super easy all you have to do is guess the date, time and sex that the first kid or lamb is born! Post your guess in the comment section at the end of this post...so I can find you! In case of a tie the person with the first post will win so get your guess posted!

Here is the SCOOP...Gestation (length of pregnancy) is approx. 145-150 days for goats as well as sheep. We put our bucks and rams in with the does and ewes on August 31, 2010. Sometimes it takes several days for the girls to go into heat so we usually add a week or two to the actual date due . For example last year we put the girls in with the boys on August 18th and we saw our first kid on January 22...do the math and take a guess...see how close you are!

We will post updates periodically throughout the contest...pics too to see how our girls bellies are growing! Gwennie pictured above left looks like she is going to explode if she gets any bigger!




Mindi pictured to the left looks like it will be twins!
Good Luck and have fun!
