[ebrader]

i need some help i have a first timer who i noticed had little vaginal bleeding on monday i figured she lost the baby and kept a close eye on her. it wasn't alot but just little strings of it. then today the bleeding has stopped and her udder is full tight witch for her mom always meant she was in labor. any help?

Is your goat due now? It sounds like she is going to deliver soon.

i honestly dont know we had her in to breed late jan. and i thought it took but honestly we had one of our bucks break out for a day while i was gone in december... the thing im worried about is the bloody dicharge..

Sounds like she may just be ready to kid.

really even with the bloody discharge... its just ive never seen any bleeding before any of the other's kiddings, but maybeye your right...

Sounds like time will tell. The December breeding would put her at May and the January breeding would put her at June. So she may be aborting.

my doe hippo had a bit of the bloody discharge the day before she kidded Giraffe .. so maybe your still fine ??

Sorry to hear this! I had a doe miscarry this season, but her udder didn't fill up. Her discharge was pretty goopy, and she didn't pass anything other than the blood.

Here's a pic of the discharge, this was the worst it got. Hope this helps.

see thats what gets me about a miscarriage though... she hasnt had even nearly as much as your pic its just a little here n there...

I am thinking she still could be fine, and due anytime now. I wouldn't panic over a little discharge.
