white discharge

I have a very sweet/healthy Alpine doe purchased last year, bred. She started wagging so we bred her again with our buck. As I was checking her, several weeks later,she had a creamy discharge NO KIDS. This year we again bred her on the 10/16, standing heat, 3 penetrations, tonight she has the same white discharge, (looks like Elmer's glue). So far not one drop of milk!!!!I would like to keep her but she may have to go. She seems healthy in every other way. There are no vets available in our area to help Your thoughts. Thanks

Put her back in with the buck now if she's still in heat. Sounds like she came back around for some reason.

Is she proven? Is your buck proven? This may seem like a silly question - but are they both in good health?

If your animals are all in good health and if the buck is proven, I'd get ahold of the breeder for the doe for infertility issues. You could do a pregnancy test on her - 6.50 at BioTracking, just send in a couple ml's of blood - no vet needed. Only accurate 30+ days after breeding. If she's still open (puchased as a bred doe, bred 2 other occasions since) then I'd think the breeder ought to replace the doe.

If your buck isn't proven I'd use a different buck and see if it sticks.
