Discharge Before Kidding Question

[goatkind]

Hello,
I have a pregnant goat who is due any day now basically and I'm a first time goat owner so I only know what I have read or heard from other goat owners. I know that they are supposed to have discharge before they start to kid and so when I went to check on her today there wasn't discharge but kind of a crusty white stuff around her vulva like you might get on your nose or if you drool at night. Is this like the begining of her discharge or is it something else? Thanks!

I know what you're talking about. Keep an eye on her and look for the long yellow stuff. My girl, Heidi, had the stuff you mention for days before she kidded.

Good luck! And
