I have a 4 year old doe who is bleeding from her vulva. It's similar to a woman's period. She is wagging her tail and blood is getting all over her back end. We have no boys in with her. She was supposed to be bred in October but she would have been due March 24, so we don't think she took. She shows no sign of being pregnant. She's acting normal otherwise.

Please help, any inputs would be great
 
But I've never had a goat bleed when they are in heat.
 
Anyone? I'm really worried about her because she's started to act a little off.
 
I am not sure. Does she look pregnant?
What's her udder look like?
 
She's kind of fat and doesn't really have much of an udder. Other than being fat, she doesn't seem pregnant.
 
Could she have delivered closer to her due date and kidded outside or in deep bedding and this is post delivery discharge?

Hmmm, I don't think so. I kept a close eye on her and she never bagged up, she never lost her ligaments, and I never saw a baby- dead or alive. Plus, it's not goopy blood like the stuff after kidding. It's red, liquid blood.

Luckily, the blood isn't pouring out like it was previously. She bleeds a small bit, on and off now.
