Hey there, super new to goats and farm animals in general!
This is my ff doe, Alice, who we paired with a Buck in Feb when she was 9 months old.
However there was an incident back at the end of December where a buck got loose and spent some time in the doeling pen. We hadn't thought he managed to breed anyone, but now I'm not so certain. The top picture is her on April 3rd, and the bottom one is her today, May 10. If she was bred immediately in February, then she'd be right around 80 days and that udder is looking kind of large for a FF? Not to mention her belly, but she's always been a bit stocky.
If she was bred early at the end of December, then she'd be closer to 135, maybe 140 days.
What do you guys think? Should I be expecting her to give birth sooner than anticipated?
