So sorry you had such a long, rough night. Congrats on the two beautiful survivors. Shame you lost the one. You need to find a vet with longer arms! :duc:hide Hope you get a chance to catch up a little rest yourself.

Wow! Not sure how the vet missed one. I’ve done several “sweeps” on goats to make sure they are done and can see how it could occur if done too quickly. (You’d think he/she would know better.) Glad the survivors are doing well! Cuties!

The vet that was on call that night. He told me up front he does not mind helping with tough delivers but he does not know anything aboit goats. He is more the a cow vet. The 2 vets that do know about goats was not on call that night. But if he had to he wpuld have called them. Before he pulled babies out he actually check her uterus to makes sure the was no holes. Because of what I thought at the time was intestings. And he only felt 2 then
And when he pull the 2 out he went in again to double check. He took his time. He did good for not knowing much about goats.
