White gooey discharge

[Cottage Cheese]

Hey all,


I just got my two pygmy doelings about a week ago. On the first night, I saw our brown one with a small trickle of white goo coming out of her " area. " Do you guys know what that is????

White goo can mean:

1) she is in season, or
2) she is in season and she has been mated - and buck goop is dripping out, or
3) she is pregnant, and losing her cervical plug, which can occur anytime from 4 wks before the birth, up to 24 hrs before the birth (and some you dont see it at all!)

Is it possible for her to be bred??? She is only 5 months old!

Yes, it's possible for a doeling to be bred at 5 months of age. I bought a doeling who was kept with her brother and he bred her when she was 3 months old. The breeder never told me there was a chance of her being bred This is why it's so important to separate bucks from the does when they're 2 months old.

I had the same experience with a doeling I purchased. She was picked up at 2-1/2 months of age and 3 months later delivered a baby doeling because the breeder didn't think the babies could breed that young.

Sheesh! So she was bred at, what...2 weeks?! Have I had too much caffine?

No, I've had too much caffine. Been getting ready for a yard sale tomorrow and doing things in a rush. Sorry. She freshened at 7 months of age.
