My flemish is making me go hmmmm?

[jil101ca]

My flemish was due on Thurs, I could/still cansee her belly rolling. She has her box but is showing no signs ofhaving her babies anytime soon. She is still eating ect. Is thereanything else that could make her tummy roll in all differentdirections? She had her 1st litter on day 30.

Have you palpated her to see if she is indeed pregnant?

No, Thurs was day 30. i'm not good at palpating,I'm afraid of pressing to hard and hurting them. We can still see herbelly rolling all over the place. Today she pulled a small amount ofhair but then nothing. She is quite her happy self, eating (althoughnot as much as normal) and drinking just fine. I'm keeping a closewatch on her due to my recent lose of Big Sis.

I would say she might need to see the vet or ifthere is a breeder near you who can palpate her I'd do that.I've been told that day 34 is the point where the doe needs to be seen(if not day 33) - but other breeders who work with larger breeds mayknow more.

I hope everything is fine.
