Bellowing Like a Cow!

*sigh* I KNOW this doe got bred three weeks ago. I saw the "evidence"!

Now she's in full heat, again, bellowing like a cow! It gets worse when she sees me, bellows even louder - what the heck? I don't think *I* can do anything to accommodate her. . . . ya know? Fortunately, most of the neighbors are far enough from my place that they can't hear the caterwauling and won't think I'm torturing my goats.

Good grief. I hope she settles this time.

I can sympathize. We have a buckling that was in with three other boys. Two have gone to do their buck work elsewhere, and he's SURE they have abandoned him. He sounds like an outside ringer for a telephone!

Most of the time the first heat of the season they are not as fertile as they should be thats why you never should AI on the first heat. Better luck this next go around. PS, if you want her to go in Heat, tell her and she never will, its a goat law

Oh dear...

Trub better have settled. That buck is beyond annoying - I can take Trub calling me, yelling with her mouth full of food to let me know that Muffin is eating out of HER BUCKET, or that someone else grabbed a mouthful of the hay with the clover in it, but that buck and his Barry White Blubbering is about to push me over the edge...

I'm getting ready to give him a good washing down with loads of that Joy dish soap that eliminates odors.
