I have a 2 1/2 year old nigi dwarf female. She was bred about 1 month ago, so we are hopefully expecting babies around Halloween. My goat "Clover" does not like to be caught and have her hooves trimmed. I have worked and worked with her, but she will eat from my hand and if I make any sudden movements she will jump back. Long story short.. they were supposed to be hand raised, NOPE, they were wilder than March hairs. We have tamed them a lot. She calms down once she realized she is caught and does fine with the nail trimming, it is just the initial "catching" her that freaks her out. I do not want to stress her to the point of her losing the babies, but she is limping on a leg and I need to check for a rock or a bruise.
Any advice would be great! Thanks
