Your goats look great! So does your pasture. Was wondering how a just a fence between bucks and does would work, duh, yeah, hot wire. Sometimes my mind doesn't kick into gear very good. lol.

We have had them break through before and had a unplanned breeding

We did do the switch last night with Rocky and Rosie after the rains stopped.
She was still standing and we saw her bred last night.

Same here....the little flirts have been walking the fence line, twirling their heads, flagging their tails since the sun came up. They can't see the boys from their pen but they sure know that they are there.

Yea for babies on the way. It looks like the goats are really loving all the space.

Not to steal the thread, but Orchid (x Drinian) is due the end of February. We are as sure as you can be with goats without biotracking.

We have 2 (or 3- the one that is showing mixed signals) Lamanchas due before her in early Jan and early Feb. I'm getting baby fever bad.

This goat heat thing blows my mind. You can't do that with sheep. I just can't put a ewe in with a ram for a couple of hours and be pretty confident she is bred. Heck I can't even leave her in for a week and be certain.....Just wow...

Ewes need to be more flirty.....
