The name I'd suggest for the calf--guess it'd work for either a male or female--is Kusubiri. Sounds neat, IMO, and is Swahili for "wait."
4/4 Evening Update
April continues to carry her great demeanor as you saw with Jordan, Corey, Joel and support staff today while cleaning the giraffe barn. She is big, udders are full, light discharge ----aaaannnnndddd thats it! She looks, and is acting, great!
Another day outside and we expect more time tomorrow!
These updates are turning into a redundant snoozefest...but then again, what can they possibly say at this point?
:cheer: Come on April, push push push! We're tired of looking at your tush! :cheer:
:cheer: Come on April, get it out! So we can shout it out! :cheer:
arty:
One of my g/f told me they are charging $4.99 to know the sex.
I was like..what....lol
Now it is a $1 for a name...lol
I have a friend that DAILY has to inform me of all the politically stuff going on, despite me saying I can't do anything about it, so I don't want to hear it. So I've started talking about April every time she starts politics. She doesn't watch April, but told me to call her if she's having the calf... She text me on Friday saying I best keep near a feed because April was going to deliver while I was out of town. I laughed, told her I would believe it when I saw it She insisted that she had seen a post and it would this past weekend. For much of the weekend, I was traveling and didn't have a signal to check in. Visited my Mom, and no signal there either. While I was away, one of my dogs attacked the other, so I got a call that my dachshund was on the way to the vet. So no signal again. Was at the vet a few hours, and was worried about her, so didn't even look for a signal. Got home, my dog was still semi sedated, didn't feel good, wouldn't walk, etc. That was on Saturday! I've checked in many times since being home... no baby!
My doggy finally peed at 4am TODAY! She hadn't peed since Saturday and was going back to the vet for IV fluids since she wouldn't drink water, nor eat. The pain meds were making her feel sick. She's eating small amounts now, and drinking water, so as long as infection stays away, she should heal fine.
So my friend calls this morning, after her usual political talk, I said "No baby yet!", she said "You need to call them, and tell them to get another vet there!" LMAO! As if! I said why would I be the one calling? There's hundred of thousands of people watching, no doubt some vets, zoos, prior caretakers of Aprils, PETA, etc, and they have more knowledge than I do!
You are kidding correct?
Her stomach is moving a lot!
Me dear friends

She is just a pig!! my jaw and back get sore just watching our big girl!
So,what are you all hoping for?
A boy or girl and what would you pick for a name?
It's funny about those fb posts, because if you read comments, people go crazy if it's mentioned and insist the media got it all wrong and AAP never said they were close!
I just discovered April last night and I am just stunned by how many people are watching her.
The count is 190,000 on youtube..just wow!
