Upsetting News

The doe we have been watching for 3 weeks to kid, finally went into labor today. But instead of a good kidding, it was terrible. She had an intestinal prolapse at the same time trying to give birth, and we lost mom and babies. Babies were already gone, but the mom had to be put down. Very upsetting to have a mother and kids die, but at least we have the babies that were born yesterday from my other doe. Still 3 does to kid and now I'm just really paranoid.

She was my first ever goat and she meant a lot so y'all can just imagine how bad I'm taking this. Have cried since she got put down.

Thanks guys. Just trying to stay positive for the 3 does that are due soon. Learn from experience, even if it doesn't have a good outcome. All it comes down to in the end is she was very loved, and appreciated.
