I have three Nigerian dwarf goats. One male two females. I acquired Hansel and Gretel, the ram and doe as a pair and a few months later I acquired the 2nd doe, Glenda. in December the two does gave birth to a boy and girl kids. I read somewhere and someone told me I had to separate Hansel from the does because he could hurt or kill the kids.
After 4 months of separation at last I found good homes for the kids and they are gone! But, family bliss is not to be found with the trio.
The ram, Hansel, is acting aggressive with Glenda. It’s not letting her eat, or get close to the other doe Greta. His phallus, is continuously sticking out and is constantly baaing also making a noise like sneezing. I know he must be anxious to breed with the does, but I don’t understand why is he behaving like that only with one of the does. He seems to be ignoring Greta.
Thank you for your help. And any behavior info you can give on this “gentleman.”
