Frosted Mini Goats CAE Negative and Pregnant!

We had some vet tech students out to get some practice drawing blood!

Whole goat herd CAE negative, see results, here: http://www.swfarm.net/CAE%20Results.html

All the goats that were far enough along were also tested for pregnancy. Everyone is bred, including an AI doe! My friends' does that I AI'd took too! I also have a doe that absorbed her pregnancy last year and her numbers are really high this year, so hopefully she keeps it this time! That doe, I decided to start milking, as she had an itty bitty udder come in 2 months later, and I got her up to almost 4 lbs a day, so it will be interesting to see what a real freshening will do for her.

My kidding schedule is here: http://www.swfarm.net/Kidding_schedule.html

Let me know if anybody is interested in putting a deposit on a kid.

Always good news & a relief when the results come back negative.

How far are you from Idaho Falls or Pocatello? I would so rather breed my does to a CAE negative buck. And it seems all the Nigerian bucks I can find close by are random weedeater pets.

I live in Buhl, ID, which is about 2 hours from Pocatello. Rokko would love to have more dates.
