Still no cria. After the fiasco of Tuesday where I was sure birth was imminent, I totally did not obsesss yesterday. I absolutely OHM'd my way through the day. No babies, I don't even know if someone sneezed. I did not stare, I may have glanced once or twice, but no obsessive behavior.
Part of that was preparation for today. I had to leave the farm this morning on business. I did not want to get it all in my head that it was going to happen today, in this heat, while I was not home.
I arrived back this afternoon, to find Odanak, and the rest of the herd, lined up waiting for me to spray them down with the hose and fill their pools. Odanak has been holding her tail up and away from her body this afternoon. Not sure what it means. Since she is the only one doing it and it is out of normal for her, my guess is that it has something to do with Partruition.
Now, for those of you thinking "Could she really have left the farm without a care in the world?" HECK NO! My kind neighbor Lynn (The "Shriner's Wife) was kind enough to stop in regularly then call me on the road to tell me everything was fine. As a matter of fact, when I called her on my way out this morning, she admitted to coming over if she didn't see my car, just to see if there were any babies on the way. I LOVE MY Neighbors. They are like an extended family. I do not know what I would do without the Shriners and the Goose Lady.
