I don't think so. I was just reading a bit on goat genetics, and it wasn't mentioned. Sterile goats occur, but not sure if it's linked to any specific condition.

but a less then 1% chance is pretty good odds of getting a fertile one.

cool!!!! maybe they have to share the same sack ?? It has something to do with the males hormones/stuff being to much for the female (little) which causes the infertility.

It is pretty rare in goats, so Jane probably doesn't have to worry.

SO 1/2 n 1/2 is my destoyer/hauler of newspaper. Likes to kill, tear off a piece and shake until dear. sort of bunch it up and then pounce. Basically the more noise the better.

Isn't that too young? Has Beth started weaning yet? Looked like she still has plenty of milk.
