So sorry about the doeling. How's Cocoa doing??

 

[CoopCrazy]

Thats sooo Sad... How is Cocoa doing ? Please keep us informed...

She is still under anesthesia and is resting comfortably on my side porch in a huge nest of hay. When she wakes up we will move her to the barn to a dry quiet stall and monitor her for at least 5 days. Stitches come out in 14 days. She is on pain meds today and maybe tomorrow. She is getting pen g each day for 5 days.

She should bounce back quickly and be fine soon.

Good to know she didn't have any complications in surgery.

Was the baby stuck and in distress? How big of a baby do you think she could have delivered by herself?

 

[Feathers Acres]

Wow, did your vet give you any explanation why the pregnancy lasted this long and let the baby get that big?

 

[WingingIt]

Oh, I'm so sorry the baby didn't make it. I'm glad Cocoa is doing OK. We know you'll take fabulous care of her. So sorry.

When she developed a very healthy rumen and was so prominent we all thought she was bred before she was actually bred. When she was then turned out with all the other goats she actually was bred at that time.

There is no mystery to it. She didn't go too long or over a due date - the baby wasn't stuck in there for an extra month or anything like that.
