Goat help

[Flores]

Hello my goat gave birth and she has a thing that looks like a string of blood is that normal.

Sounds like afterbirth to me. As long as she seems normal I wouldnt worry too much.

That is very normal. Within 24 hours she should deliver the afterbirth and then she will have a bloody discharge off and on for a few weeks. As long as there is no smell all is good.

What do I do with the Baby bellycord

make sure it is clean. Dipping the end in iodine is good. Don't tug on it.
