The first few months of pregnancy (with most women), people are petrified to walk up to them and say, “Congratulations!” because how embarrassing would it be if they weren’t pregnant but had just put on a few pounds. That happens so easily in life. Well, a goat won’t be embarrassed, but they are really hard to tell if they are pregnant because they...
On average, a goat is pregnant for about 150 days or about 5 months. If you separate your nanny goats from your bucks, then you should have a pretty clear idea when your nanny goat was bred. However, if you don’t separate them (which we don’t) then you might have to play a bit of a guessing game as to when she will deliver her kids. I follow a few ...
The process of birthing a kid isn’t very long. When you begin to notice that your goat is showing true signs of labor, she will probably have the baby delivered within 12 hours. However, when you actually begin seeing her push, she should have the kid delivered within 30 minutes. Here is what you can expect to see during the birthing process:
1. Grab a Towel
You will treat a goat kid very similar to a human baby after it has been birthed. You will get a clean towel and wipe all of the placenta off of the baby. Be sure to clean around its mouth and nose so it can breathe. Also, try to keep it as warm as possible.
2. Rock the Kid
After the goat kid is clean and its mouth and nose are clean, then you’ll need to swaddle it like a human baby and rock it back and forth. However, this isn’t to be cute. It actually helps get any remaining fluid out of the baby’s lungs.
3. Make Sure It Is Breathing
Finally, before you give the baby back to its mom, be sure it is breathing. If it is breathing on its own okay, then you’ll know that you don’t need to rock it any longer. Then the baby should be fine. The mother goat will lick the baby repeatedly to make sure it is cleaned to her standards.
Some does may take longer between kids without problems. If they are up cleaning a kid and appear comfortable, longer than one hour may be acceptable. Goats may have three, or rarely, more kids.
