Breeding or Dominance?

[SarahFair]

Well my two goats are circling each other in seeing who can mount the other first. She is letting him push her around a little more than normal (she likes to be the dominant one and doesnt like anyone pushing her) and mounting her a lot more. She also has a dried gunk on her tail and around her vulva.
I see him mounting and his buttock tightening but they will never do it at an angle where I can see if they are making contact
...and he wont do it if Im out there

The hair around the base of her tail is wet though




Should I mark this date as bred?
Will he try to rebreed her on other days?
Does this mean her being my only doe he wont pee pee on himself after this?

Maybe....but I would wait to see if she goes into another heat to be certain. Thats just me. Others may know more.

Yes...but if shes not in heat. She will let him know! Back off

No....sorry! He may do that for a little bit longet thru his rut!

I would say mark the day if she has dried stuff on her tail. I see this on my does every year and I mark the day and last year I had all my does (8) kid within one to two days of the date I marked and a couple on the exact date. He will probably still be in rutt even though she is the only doe and bred just because this is the season for it. Good luck and hope this helps.
