Hi i have a minni lamatcha that is less then a year old. I think 8 or 9 months old. she is pregnate(it is an axdentle breading but Im very mad becuse she is my preciouse doe) Dads are probbly nigaren dowth Its not garenteed. I had this happen before and it end out bad and with a emergancy vet visit for that doe (lost the kids from that doe). Im wondering if anyone has advice for What to do to make it a bit less Risky for both mom and Baby(s)?(and posibly no vet invaled). I am giveing a vitamin d shot and a multimin shot to make sure she is good on those but any advise will help
 
Lutalyse is an option, depending on far along the pregnancy. Do you know when she was bred??? If so, call vet & ask. It's a cheap fix! But sounds like she may be too far.

Otherwise, as you already know -- what will be will be. Hoping for the best. I'd suggest you not overfeed her. Increase roughage but not grains. Hope for a small kid. We can't do more if she too far to abort.
 
I hope its small too... I raised this doe for a week when her mom was sick and she is very loveing and intelagent and i care for her a lot.... i wish i knew sooner.... Its why i asked for advice.... Her mom is my best milker and shes the oldest of 3 doeling alive from this moma goat
