R_Oldroyd 17 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 I have a jill that was put to a hob sometime ago. She is really fat but nothing has happened. Could she still have kits this late in the year. Regards roger Its really hard to tell whats going on with her. She seems to be struggling and is best left on her own. Any thoughts Quote Link to post

ferret15 0 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 if she is pregnant you should be able to feel the babies they will feel like she has a belly full of pebbles very lumpy if not then either she needs to lose some weight or there could be something else wrong phantom pregnancy or worse can you post a pic as your description is a bit vague.
