I was just wondering if my kidding list was good and ready enough for kidding. Here's what I have:
Empty feed bags or garbage bags
Paper towels
Puppy training pads
Scissors
Unflavored dental floss
Baby bottles or pritchard teats w/ soda bottle
7% iodine tincture
Goatbaby "hut" - to keep warm
Quiet hair drier
flashlight - to see if the kids in the right position
Number for a vet
Bulb syringe

Okay, thanks for the help! :)
I have a running list of things in my kit, if you want to see what I've got!

I think you'd be better off to use reusable towels over paper... because there is a LOT of goop to get off those puppies!!
Also, you might want a more permanent light source for kidding in the middle of the night. I don't think I could have held a flashlight and checked on/cared for my does while they are in active labor.
