I would have to see backends/bags very difficult to tell from the pics, they all look close ;)

I think they might be pregnant. Can you get them to pee on one of those little strip things?  ;)

You never know... one of my girls lambed twins this week- I was convinced she was only having a single as she wasn't that big at all. She has them just under a week early but both were fine. The others have been the size of a house and had twins too  :)
