Freemartin Doe

This doe kid was a twin to a buck, notice the tiny teats and the underdeveloped vulva. This condition is caused by the twins sharing the same placental attachments, allowing testosterone to cross over to the doe kid and preventing her reproductive organs from developing. Picture taken at one year of age.

Signs of Labor

I have learned that the best way to tell that your doe is beginning labor, is to know your doe and notice any changes in her normal routine. She may not eat with the rest of the herd, often wandering away from them. If you do not know your does due date, check for softening of the ligaments on each sideof her backbone just above her tail. If you become familiar with the way they feel and they become very soft, sometimes to the point that you can almost touch you fingers together around the bone, kidding is very close. Here are other signs that kidding is imminent.

Ears back, closed eyes, stiff back legs,
back arched, udder may become visibly
larger.
Pawing frequently.
Yawning, calling out, biting her sides. Looking at her sides. Licking.
Opaque discharge.
Luzcille is getting serious, notice the stiff
back legs, time to head for the kidding stall.
Amber Discharge.

Milk Goiter

Copper Deficiency
Two signs that a goat is copper deficient, split tail and brown coloring of hair that should be black
Kidding Pictures
Polled or Horned?

Note the hair pattern is exactly the same, but the 1 month old kid clearly has horns and the 3 month old has bumps like a giraffe.
