A gestation calculator can be helpful when trying to determine due dates.

She doesn't look pregnant to me, unless she is hiding it well/has a small single in there. Most goats when they're that close to birth definitely look pregnant, her, not so much. She looks like she has had kids before, from that udder. But unless she fills up the instant before she gives birth, it just looks like an udder of a doe that has been well used.

She does need a good dose of a copper bolus, however. Or several doses. Her fur turning rusty like that on her haunches is a dead giveaway for a copper deficiency in a black colored goat.

I'll go buy her copper does today her udder doesn't work the animals shelters vet told me that when I adopted her she thinks she caught Mastitis n wasn't treated for it right n that when they rescued them from the man that had then he had the 2 females I adopted living with 4 bucks so just watch for kids
