No, it's a bit like women going through "the change" growing facial hair. She's just not producing enough estrogen to maintain her more feminine characteristics. There shouldn't be anything to worry about.

Thank you

Ok, I searched hard & found adult photos of Tarragon before the changes. So I’m not crazy. She has changed very recently.

Looks like the damage to her ovary was recent then. She was definitely a sexually mature female at one point. Now, she's just a bearded lady.

Poor girl. As long as the hormones don’t turn her violent and hurt anyone she can live out her days a bearded lady. I know it’s a part of having livestock but I’ve not had to cull anyone before…
Thank you for responding.
