Question Doe with discharge?

Yesterday I purchased 3 kids and borrowed the dam until weaning age. She has discharge from her vulva, it's a pale red color and kind of thick. she kidded about a week ago, is this normal?

As she only kidded a week ago, that's pretty normal.

But keep an eye on her. If the discharge becomes profuse, bright red, or foul-smelling, then get back on here and we'll help you figure it out.

In the meantime, I wouldn't worry. Just enjoy your new kids.

Sounds like her bodies normal cleaning out but do like Pony said.

Hey Pony, so nice to see you here, I missed you!

I'm not here as much once the weather gets nice, I just have too much to keep up with outside. Glad your back.

Sorry Reed77, I didn't mean to hijack your thread.
