Heard that you all had fun. Hope that your goats are all fine. Could use your knowledge for Circe. She has one udder that seems full, but no billy aroud to get her with kids. Now, all I need is to get Darkhorse back. He needs to do more work with Dancer and we need a good home for Angel.
If her udder is full then she's going to kid pretty soon, depending on when she began bagging up. From my personal experience, if a doe starts bagging up, then she's going to kid usually within 6-7 weeks. If her udder is stretched almost to bursting and the skin is somewhat shiny, then she'll kid within 24-72 hours. I'd recommend having her in a pen by herself for the actual kidding, so that she doesn't have to fight for food or fend off curious onlookers that could accidentally step on her kids. It also helps her get acquainted with being a mother if she's never kidded before.
