Have you opened her vulva up enough to take a closer look at that dark thing in there?? I'd take a closer look. Sometimes goats with loose poochy vulvas preparatory to kidding will get stuff stuck in there when they lay down. I've had does get poop pellets stuck like that.
It doesn't *look* like a prolapse......I'd take a closer look to see if its just stuck there or if its coming out of her.
As far as this goes Nubians and Saanans are no different, this isn't a breed "thing".

Okay Becuz I havent see that is sticking out. It is like WHOA!! What is that.. I will look inside of her tonite. Whenever my hubby helps me soon. My hubby thinks she is getting closer than we all think. But I aint worry about too much about it. Becuz her udder is not full. But she looks like she is getting milk gradually..

Ozark, Actually I am more nervous with Saanen. Becuz they are like almost same size of a horse. Oh well. I am learning and get used to them. And I guess she is going to kid in a month then or sooner. WHO KNOWS!!! As long she is really pregnant!

Well, from the look of that poochy butt....I'd say she is going to kid sooner or later!

deafgoatlady, if this is the only "white" goat you have, then maybe it is the startling pink skin that makes this saanen look so strange. I have some light colored LM goats and they can sure get pink too Perhaps your Nubians get just as poochy in the back but they don't look as impressive because they are a darker color.

Then maybe that is it. My lighter colored goats get quite sunburned and their vulvas and their udders can get very very pink, almost red when they sunburn.

I leave them hairy and unshaved for that reasons...my lighter colored does anyway.

Oh, one more thing. it may help that doe if you wash the slight diarrhea off her sun burned behind. it may feel better to her since she is so tender back there. Be gentle! Also, you can cut the nasty hairs off the base of her tail with scissors, it will get dirty again when she kids anyway. leave the end of the tail fluffy
