kid

I bought a Nubian doe back in March who had been running with a buck since January and am not milking her but she seems to have milk but she is not filling out as if she were with kid so my question is what are the chances she is with kid?

I'd say chances are pretty good that you're going to have a surprise one of these days. January is prime breeding season.

Just depends how they carry them. Sometimes they don't "show."

I'd say that depends on your location. Here in Texas, my Nubians have bred every season of the year.
