Her name according to my 4 yr old is Pinky Pie! Woke up this AM and found her cold and soaking wet :( (first time mom) and it didnt help that its been raining all night. She has shown no signs of labor at ALL so we did not think anything was up. We are going to bottle feed her since she is so weak she still can not get up but once she is ready we will put her back with mama. Anyways Not sure if mama is done she is contracting but it could just be after birth. Ive got another mama ready to pop as well so ill update for those interested :) This is my first goat birth and Im excited!!
Still just one baby. she is standing now as well :) now to get her to eat!
Her with my pit bull. put her with the pit and the dryer vent to warm her up
Did you breed them? I have a few questions if you can help?
Baby wont eat :( Is sucking on my pit bulls nose and ears(pit is a mother toour newborn anything dont freak out Lol) but you can see her teeth and they are fully there but are covered by the gums still. Our buck rammed mama about 6 times(im 8 months pregnant i got there as fast as i could) so we assume she is a premie. Any cool tricks to get her to eat? Mama keeps kicking her when we put her out there and we tried about 4 different size nipples and nothing. we are using a seringe right now and she is finally standing. and she has peed as well.
Any tricks to get mama to take her? its so cold i dont wanna just put baby outside and see if she will accept her. but the longer we keep her away the less likely mama will take her right?
Quoting IloveNCIS:Awwwwww, I miss having goats.
I'm sorry. I'm not much help, I haven't had goats since I was a kid, 25 years ago.
