Well I bred my broken sable point holland lop doe, Jasmine to my friends solid Siamese Sable buck Cocoa (same sire to Ebony's litter) on the 26th of July! Jasmine is due tomorrow and already has her nest ready and lined with minimal fur. Jasmine so far doesn't pull enough fur so might have to pull more out of her again lol. I forgot to palpate her on day 14 of her pregnancy so I'm going by her behavior. I did gently feel her belly (just place my hands around her lower belly) to see if I could feel them kick but nothing (doesn't mean she isn't prego). If by feeling her, I would say this is going to be a small litter or she wasn't pregnant (she's really not as fat) so I'm thinking 3 kits (unless she's hiding them very well, has happened before). Tomorrow morning or late tonight is when I expect them to be born! Hopefully I'll get a Siamese sable kit in this bunch which is a HIGH chance of that hehehehe. Will post pics tomorrow when they arrive, if alive and healthy. Fingers crossed! today is day 32, so far nothing. I'm starting thing think this is my first case of false pregnancy. I know it's still early but her belly just doesn't seem firm as it should be and when I tried feeling her belly very gently she tried matting lol. I hope I am wrong but if I am o well lol I can breed her to Hershey in October

No kits yet! She went from cheerful yesterday and this morning (greeting me, letting me pet her) to now she's grumpy and territorial so hopefully its soon! |

nothing! I swore a few days ago, day 31 or 32 I saw a kit kick but still nothing. Today is day 34. I did have a doe give birth midnight on day 34 so tech. it was day 35, she had 3 healthy kits. I am hoping she still is pregnant but not holding my breath either :-P I might pick up some cilantro and see if that helps. |

just an update, I apologize, life lately has been very busy! Jasmine ended up having my first false pregnancy in my barn! The only difference to a real and a false is just simply no kits (she has nothing retained either) and I did notice she wanted to nest very early on, really too early for her normal pregnancy behavior. Anyways, I plan on breeding her to Hershey at the end of October/early Nov or possibly just before I leave for Christmas vacation. I still want to see if she throws bad teeth or if it was just her and Gizmo combo that does that. I also realized if I sell her I will only have one broken doe left and I love brokens so I'll keep Jas for one more litter.

Oh, that's too bad. At least she was fine and not overdue, though!! The first false pregnancy we had here was funny, but the next was a bit annoying . Silly does! Hope you are able to breed her this fall!
