if you are looking at her head the movement was to the right. i dont know how long ago it was but deffently a while ago.
by does this happen often. i ment breakins and unexpected pregnancys
so i was noticing alot of movement, more than usual in my does stomach today. she has been eating alot more. more kind to the other goats and usually she is rough and the herd boss. so... i think she is bred again. we did have a breakin but i thought i had gotten there in time before any...
so i know that it is poisionious and i have read that a little will make a goat sick and alot will kill them. my goat managed to nibble two small bites of a leaf before i got him away. it has been three hours and he has been fine. he ate his dinner normaly and drank water. pooping and peeing...

those teats are exactly what my does teats look like! im going through this same thing. doeling prefers smaller teat always. i was suggested to tape off smaller side and kind of force the doeling to drink from the larger side to help even things out.
