I recently purchased a 3 year old doe and her 1 year old daughter. I noticed the daughter is still trying to nurse from the momma. Way too old for that I know, but I am fairly new to owning pet goats, so is there something I should do?

If the dam isn't under weight, I'd leave it be. The doe will kick her off before she kids again, so you don't need to worry about that.
