Is my doe ready to kid?

[norseofcourse]

Congrats on the buckling! If she still looks and acts like she is having another, and it doesn't happen, you may need to glove/lube up and check, in case it's presented wrong. Or to make sure she only had one in there.

Do you have a vet, or a goat mentor near you you could calll for help?

Edited to add: Are you sure she passed the entire placenta? Got a picture of it? (yeah, gross, I know, but it might help us tell)

Thank you all for the congrats!
I don't have a mentor and I have a vet but I'm not sure she has much experience with kidding.
I have read up on "going in" if I have to. She is still restless and pawing at the ground. I think I am going to go in, just didn't want to if it was just because I'm paranoid.
As far as the placenta, I don't have a picture but it was rather large (about a lb maybe), now she is just dripping...

Tried to upload a pic but the file is too large. I'll try to upload one after I'm sure she's done...

double post...

Well I think she is done, doesn't seem as agitated now. I checked her but I didn't go in far, it felt she wasn't fully dialated so I didn't want to force it. I assume that means she is done but I'm going to keep my eye on her...

Awww, he's so cute! Was his sire a Pygmy?

 

[mirandaleecon]

He IS adorable!! I do believe the sire was a pygmy. I honestly don't know anything about breeds and what classifies as what. So, since you mention it, any idea what breed the mother is? Or the sire?

Congratulations!! He's very cute! How's momma doing now?

 

[frustratedearthmother]

what a cutie!

What a cutie! That's a good looking kid too! Congrats on your first delivery success! Sorry you weren't present when she delivered... I'm sure she planned that as well

Is that picture of the sire of your doe?
I'm not sure what the the mother is, maybe a Nigerian Dwarf or Pygmy ND cross. Is she small?
