giraffe cam..she is getting ready to give birth

Good..because the first thing I thought was 'she needs to be able to walk around or this could take months'.

Horses can hold onto babies for up to a month after their due dates. I had a mare who was due (and you know when they're due, as the breeding is controlled) early one spring. It was a really cold spring.

We lived on a road where there were about 13 broodmares up the road a little way, also all pregnant...

Nobody had any babies that year on their due dates....my mare was a whole month over her due date, I think she was 5 weeks passed. And the day that she delivered, so did all the broodmares up the road.

They couldn't see or hear each other, they were about 5 miles apart.
 
They don't have straw on the floor that i can see. It's just some hay that she's pulled out of her feeder.
