My buck has totally stressed her out :( he wouldnt stop trying to get to her and broke the fence. I had to lock him up in the pen and now she is in the yard. UHHHH! He is so annoying! :rant

Congrats on both accounts!!!

Hopefully tonight is the night! What color is the mucus?

Must be a good year for all bucks to go into breeding mode early. My 2 adults started calling a few days ago. Granted I find the "old man yelling" noises oh so amusing, but one of them keeps snorting, pawing, & licking my pant legs which is really annoying when im trying to do stuff. My neighbors probably think im nuts for constantly yelling at him "Wrong species jerk!!!" (I use a certain other name that includes the word dumb & the letter A thats not as polite, but I wont post that xD)...I really love my boys but man I need a life :/.

Anyways how is she now??

:pop :caf

Thank you!The long string of mucus was clear. She is laying down relaxing with no progress. lol I wish he was mildly annoying but he is - I will destroy everything and beat up the girls annoying- I cant have that. A friend thinks that he is stressing Niya out and she doesn't want to kid anywhere near him. I dont know but no baby (yet). As the day turns to night ,the sun sets on my sanity. The house in total disarray with the children fighting non stop, the buck is a narrow minded jerk ( he has a lot in common with the mr. :p ) , my 2 1/2 lb chihuahua decided drop a 3 lb poop in my hallway , my african grey just blessed me out and my youngest is running around with no diaper hold his wee-wee screaming " no it's mine!" and I still havent made dinner because I was at the doctor confirming my worse nightmare of being preggo for the 4th time and my husband sat on the pc playing battlefield 3 the whole time , which explains the marker on my walls. Toddlers tend to do that kind of stuff while unsupervised. YAY! It's going to be a great night! LOL I will update tonight if there is any action but at the rate I'm going it looks grim.

Things are starting to settle here a bit . I starting thinking about everything and it is kinda funny. My 2 year old is out there lol He does the most outrageous things sometimes. I sure hope this buck snaps out of his horny rampage. Dont know how much more I can handle :/

When mine was that age he liked to dance on top of the table naked. It happens to the best of us. He's 5 and still a nudist. I hope your buck settles down for you too. Sounds like she might kid soon since you're in the pulling hair stage. I read the doe cod and the 17 page 6 week book of that poor girl and her doe that you posted. Wowser! I definitely learned a few things though. 1. Get a date! 2. If she starts showing signs go back inside and wait 6 more weeks! Lol

Sorry to lol at your misery OP, but the whole thing is pretty funny especially the "its mine!" bit xD. As for the buck & your hubby call me awful, but im all for locking both of them both in the garage till the doe kids ;) :cool:.

Now in all seriousness do you have a quiet place you could move her to?

I agree with the buck and hubby being room mates! I can't believe I didn't think about that :lol: I checked her this morning and nothing. Since I have penned up the buck the does have been kind of bonding so I will turn them out in to the yard together while the buck stays locked up. I have 1 large pen but two separate parts. I only did it like that because Nanette (my other doe) and the buck were very bonded and they stayed together 24-7. Oh boy did they scream when I tried to keep them apart! But I think they both hate him now. I would put him in the large shed but he is in destroy everything mode and he could easily punch a whole through that thin siding. Maybe I will put the girls in there tonight. A friend of mine who has some goats swears she has never seen a buck go this crazy. He actually tried to ram my 2 year old but i grabbed him before he could. I was debating on finishing him but its a hormone thing and I get it but I have to find a way to get him out of this rut! I probably should get the vet out her to chop his goods off but at the same time he has the coolest ear markings and I know someone would want him for breeding. Maybe I will only do does and if I ever need a buck I'll get a stud.

Well, still no exciting news on Niya BUT I think I finally figured out the ligament thing. If I am correct then it's about halfway gone. She has seemed to be a LOT more relaxed without the buck around her. He on the other hand is as mad as a cut snake. I think I am just going to remove his manhood. Don't know how long it takes for her ligaments to disappear but when it gone you all will be the first to know :)
