I actually had one of those freemartin's that are so rare in goats. This was a registered pygmy and the only female in a triplet birth. She never showed a heat cycle. Her teats never developed past the tiny little nubs that doeling's are born with. Her outward genitalia was small and looked underdeveloped. My veterinarian/friend was fascinated by her and did a pelvic exam. Her vaginal canal was short and had no discernible cervix. But she was gorgeous. We started showing her when she was very young and she did extremely well. When we actually figured out that she was a freemartin we no longer showed her with the exception of showmanship classes.
