I think this is it with Ju-Ju!!!! But

Google 'congested udder'...you can turn it around if you really work at it.

I've had a doe raise twins on one half when the other half congested...but it might be better to pull one to the bottle after ensuring the other is latching on and being allowed to nurse.

sorry...If it really stresses the doe to remove the kids, bottle feed them 3 times a day, but leave them with mom.

Wow, so the next day after Ju-Ju's boys were born, my oldest son got a stomach virus, was hospitalized after 4 hours of vomiting, he has diabetes type 1,took a tole fast on his body, so I had to leave the babies and mom to fend for themselves, clogged teat and all, got to come home today, my baby boy 2, and nature took care of the problem!!!!! Happy to say everyone in my goat family and my own family are healthy and doing good.
I met a woman today and she raises Nubian goats and I'm going tomorrow to pick up an orphaned Nubian bottle baby girl. I am giving her to my son, he is the reason I got into goats in the first place, and we're finally getting the dairy doe. We are excited, extremely tired and just happy everything is o.k.

Glad all is going well. You've had a rough couple of weeks.
