    Went outside to check on my girls and Luna somehow tore her lady parts on something… it’s bleeding and obviously she’s in pain. What can I do? Will this effect her labor? I’m terrified…

    I have a newly purchased 12 yr old Nubian Goat that wasn't well taken care of before we got her, she is pregnant (unknown months) but looks ready to go anytime. She recently came down with snot nose, fast respirations around 40 and a cough, her temperature is 104.4. Her lungs are clear, she's...

    This doe was bred but we haven’t been convinced she took. Breeding happened on Dec 11. She has had 2 other litters the past two years. On Jan 19 my daughter thought she was acting in heat with tail flagging and hanging out extra with the wethers. She has gained a little weight and yesterday I...

    New to goat kidding and this is our first year kidding goats. We have 4 goats due this month. My one goat cherry has been weird all day today and I was wondering If we are close? Or do we still have a bit? Wondering if I should put her in the kidding stall and have coffee on? She was laying...
  5. Goat Management
    Hello everyone! So I've owned goats for awhile now and haven't given consistent CD+T vaccines. When I've castrated my bucks they received their vaccines, but I haven't given any to my does. Now I'm wanting to start, but wondering when it would be best to do that. I currently have 4 goats, a...

    Hey everyone! Been a while since I posted. So I've been away at college and my parents have been taking care of the goats for me. I went back for the first time in a bit this past weekend and realize... oh my gosh, Dolly is very pregnant! Some backstory on Dolly: we got her on new years eve...

    I have a Pygmy Doe that we bought pregnant and do not know the due date as they just had her penned with the buck. She started bagging up a little two weeks ago and was looking HUGE. But now, she seems to have days where she looks significantly smaller, but then goes back to looking enormous...

    Ok so…I’m super new to goats, I literally knew next to nothing when I bought them a couple months ago. All 3 of my gals was preg. when I bought them. One of my Doe’s has already dropped twins, I literally had no clue she was that close she showed almost no signs of labor (to my untrained eye)...
  9. Beginners Goat Raising
    This is our first year raising goats and its possible that our bucklings have impregnated our doe. All of the kids are 8 months now but the doe is much bigger and starting to look a bit round too. We never separated her from mother and she has always been bigger than the boys (who come from a...

    We have 7wk old ND kids. 2 buckling, one doeling. How long can we keep them together without risk of the doe getting pregnant. Planning to wether boys, but hoping to hold out as long as possible. These will be pets. Not breeding. Hate the idea of keeping her separate.

  13. Beginners Goat Raising
    We‘re going to pick out our first goats in two days! Two pregnant Nubians who are within a week or two of their due dates. Anything particular that we should look for since they are near the end of pregnancy or questions we should ask when we go to pick them out? We are buying from a breeder who...

    I woke up this morning to check on my pregnant doe who’s close and her eye was like this. It’s sunken in and funky. Her nose is also a little gunky. Anyone have any ideas? It wasn’t like this last night. Here is her other eye for comparison.
  15. Health & Wellness
    Hi everyone! I posted about this doe a little while ago because of her scabs on her udder and general sickness. The forum determined it was probably staph, and so I’ve been treating her for that. She’s due literally any day now. Last night, I was brushing her (like I do every night) and felt...

    I got this doe back in November who was supposedly bred. Three days after getting her home, this stringy discharge with a sort of bulb at the end (shown below) appeared. She started pawing at the ground, grunting, getting up and down, and had kinda gummy ligs; all what I thought to be labor...

    So I got this doe, Georgia, in January. The owners tricked me into thinking she was super pregnant and healthy, but that turned out to be anything but. I got her back and took her to the vet and he told me she had tapeworms, an upper respiratory infection, and that her blood test came back...
  18. Waiting Room
    Some of you are already familiar with my Beulah. I don't have an EDD for her, we kee our buck and her together (used to lol) but she's progressing nicely, it's just hard for me to tell what's going on with her. I'm a new goat momma and this is my very first time kidding. I'm very excited! Here...

    Hey y'all. Newbie here with my gals Coco and Zeppy. We're all new to this kidding thing. My girls are FF and Coco is due March 6-7, and Zeppy is due any time between March 6 & April 10. I think Zeppy is likely due between March 13 and 20th though based on heat signs and a messy rear end.
  20. Kidding Koral
    For those who don't know, I have two pregnant does, Bella and Prim. They are both approximately two months pregnant. Recently I've noticed that Bella does not want Prim eating at the hay rack with her. This is very unlike her. They've were raised together, and Bella's has been fine with...
