Not as pregnant as we thought

Pregnant goats Sept 17

Last month we thought that our goats Georgina had Spot were pregnant. The belief was that Georgina had been mated by our then billy, Spotless, shortly after giving birth. Spot on the other hand we believed had conceived in July when Snow, born to Georgina at the start of April, had matured enough to do the deed. Had our theory about Georgina been accurate, we would now have kids. The allotted dates have now come and gone and there is no pitter-patter of tiny hooves. Both Georgina and Spot look pear-shaped so we still think they are pregnant, but we are looking at the end of the year as being the more likely date for the arrivals.
