Just born
I bought a very poor goat to help clean up around here. She was doing a great job and beginning to get fat (I thought). Heard her bleat and went to check on her, she had a doe kid that's problably only 3-4 hours old.
I've raised a little of everything but haven't been around goats for 40 years and I need advice.
Kid is not standing yet
Mom seems to be ignoring the kid
What's normal? Do I need to milk her and feed the kid or let nature take its course?
How old before the kid is able to stand?
Please help this ignorant old fool. If nothing else the mom got a pardon, she was going to go to the freezer.
