Blood test for preg?
This year we are breeding "mini" nubians and alpines (honestly it's because that's the only dairy buck we have)....
However - I put some in with our buck when they showed signs of heat - then they cycled again.
Now being later in the season - I just put the little dude in with all 9 goats. He's 6-8" shorter than my standard nubians.... but I want to be sure they get bred!
When can I do a blood test to check them out? I want to make sure he is breeding them (he got the nigerians just fine as they are now huge barrels with legs instead of goats)....if he's NOT breeding them - I will just use my boer buck until I find a decent dairy buck (I just got a sannan buckling)...and no longer care as much about paperwork since I need the milk more than more paperwork
