Hello! I just noticed a sore on the left side of my 8 month old Nubian wether. I have two other wethers his age that I havent seen any on, nor my pregnant Pyorga doe.

Any thoughts would be great! This same goat has also been bloating on and off for the past few weeks...

How bad would sore mouth be for a pregnant doe? She is due next month and I am worried that it may be a problem.

It looks like sore mouth, some treat with Listerine. Since contagious to you as well as the herd wear gloves when treating.
It is not harmful per se to preg does but can spread to udder & kids if left untreated make it uncomfortable to nurse.
