Fergie grunted at us the whole time she was pregnant and she pulled fur right after mating, at 2 weeks on day 24 and then twice the day she gave birth. She was quite bald after lol

I find when does pull fur early, especially if they are proven breeders, that they are having a false pregnancy. But put a nesting box in aruond her due date just to be sure.

Wendy, our white Flemish Giant doe, started grunting and talking a lot about midway along in her pregnancy. She got large early, and I figured she was complaining to London, her mate who is in the hutch next door, that it was his fault she had to carry this huge belly around. A few days or weeks after kindling, her grunting really fell off. The kits are now about 9.5 weeks old and she is starting to grunt and talk again. But by now it seems almost to have become a part of her personality. I wouldn't worry about the talking or grunting.
I would suspect a false pregnancy, however, with the hair pulling. As was written above, best to give her a nestbox as the time approaches just to make sure she's got one if she is indeed pregnant.

My bun made her nest two weeks before she had babies,
