Well, when I went out to check Petunia tonight, there was quite a difference in her udder. Now I'm thinking maybe she is pregnant. The first picture is from a few weeks ago.
Well, it's been a while and he seems perfectly fine. If there was going to be a problem, shouldn't it have happened by now? And THANK YOU all for your helpful and caring replies.
Good morning,
Yesterday, my husband noticed bailing twine hanging out of our Oberhashli's mouth. He pulled out about three feet, but then the goat was uncomfortable, so Hubby cut the string off at his mouth. We don't know how much is still in him. We just lost his brother last month due to...
Hi there, we had to have the vet out the other day for a very uncomfortable wether. He was crying and his belly looked like he was constipated. I gave him a dawn and water enema. The vet said to give him olive oil. That helped a little. The vet did come out and give him Banamine. Then last...

We adopted this cute gal from a rescue. The rescuer said she doesn't think there is any way that she could be pregnant. But I am beginning to doubt. Can a donkey look like this and not be pregnant? By the way she is a mini about 18 years old.
Thank you all for your replies. We have since gotten four more goats, two Boer crosses and two purebred Oberhaslis. The new ones are very tame and the older ones that we have had are getting better. We lost our sweet 34-year-old Arabian horse, but the goats are enjoying life with a mini horse...
