I brought a Nubian doe home yesterday with her wether brother. She's 3 yrs. old and due the first of February. Being typical goats my herd leader is not allowing her into the barn and it's 12 degrees outside and snowing!! She was inside last night as even my bossy girl allows everyone in at night (I think she just is too lazy to get up at night and butt them back outside) but I'm concerned right now because she's out there shivering.
I went out and spent some time with them this afternoon, letting her get into the barn (keeping miss bossy goat girl away from her) but she didn't want in... she ran back outside! I have no other place for her that is goat proof so I have to figure out if she's Ok as is or what to do for her?
Thankfully her brother stands next to her and I'm sure that helps with some protection from the weather but????
