Ready or Not....... Shouldvknwnbetter- Fall

I would think they would last as long as no one drops them! We use a 75 w red flood bulb for our chicks and that gives more than enough heat
 
So Coco has reached day 145- not sure there is any difference in her behavior or how she looks(since we have only had her about 1 week). Of the 3 does, she is by far the most skittish- we can pet her a bit but try and touch further or her touch sides- not happening! She is eating/drinking just as the other 2 are.

@Sweetened- good luck with your girls!

Some goats get snotty and don't want to be messed with ... then just before they kid they get all lovey. Some get all lovey after they kid and they are back to their lovable selves!
 
Day 147- as of chores this morning- no visible change that we can see- she came right over for her grain with the other 2 does. Of course we only get a quick look while she is eating. No udder development that we can see.

So how many days past day 150 can they kid?

Does she have an udder at all? If she doesn't have an udder, get ready to bottle feed.

I believe you said the vet confirmed she was bred?
