Goats don't read the books. I had one doe I AI'ed. I checked her the day before she was due and she had NO udder. I mean none. So I concluded that she didn't take with the artificial insemination and would kid later. Like five months after I had put the clean up buck in, which would be in another three weeks. The next morning when I went to do chores I found her with two new babies and a full udder. I have had that happen more than once. A doe can drop an udder in an astonishingly short period of time. As for the lip curl and the urine, it doesn't mean a thing.

that's funny!
my vet says "It's all right there in the sheep book... problem is, sheep can't read."

Her due date is the 19th of this month and Ive noticed shes becoming more rounder and her udders are slowly filling up..

Something Ive noticed today is a yellowish discharge coming from her

Its dried and crusted now but looks like it was thick..
Mucus plug?

My buck is also all up in her bubble...
Im wondering if she isnt admitting some kind of hormone

If you can, keep the buck away from her. Sometimes bucks try to breed a doe that is about to kid or has just kidded, and I can't imagine that the does appreciate that at all. The yellowish discharge is normal. I am not sure what it is but I have seen it a lot in late term does.

Yeah.. I can go ahead and put her in the kidding area.
Being the queen bee shes not going to like that

Thanks!
