What breed? Nigerian?
May 2nd would be the first possible due date (@ day 145), I would guess she would kid in the first 1-2 weeks of May, although it could be longer. She looks like she took sooner rather then later. Not much help I know
Do you know when she went into heat? Did you see the buck mount her at all?

i think goat whisper is right "sooner rather than later"
She's got a nice little first freshener udder there.

In about 5 days. I'm kidding just a little bit. But I suspect anytime in the next ten days max given her size and the dates. If you are watching her closely you'll see her get uneasy as early labor starts. Some pace, some paw, some get up, get down, get up, get down, and any combination of the previous before you see discharge start. Keep us posted- we all love watching for new babies! (I'm waiting with you, I have a doe due in about 8 days)

Just checking in, Kyla, to see how your doe is doing. You do know that by changing your plans your doe won't kid until after the weekend, right? It's all part of the doe code.
I thought my girl was going to go with her first breed date because she expanded rather dramatically, but now she is ever soooo slowly building an udder and I am going to go back to expecting babies end of June. So feel free to keep posting pics and complaining about bad goats until those babies get here.
