My two year old goat has been limping the last few days .I looked her over and I don't see anything obvious wrong with her. It has been a very set winter but the ground is mostly dry now. I felt the whole leg and nothing is warm or swollen. Not sure how worried I should be. I'm in Huntsville Alabama.

Goats are notorious for twisting joints... I'd not get overly concerned if you've checked her & there's no obvious damage or "heat" in the area in question... Heat would indicate damage or an infection.
