This section is on considerations for birthing goats. It is not focused on breeders of meat goats with hundreds or thousands of animals. The focus is on sharing our experience as a small-sized farm with birthing registered breeding boer goats where more attention can be given to the animals if the breeder wishes to. The subject will be broken down into many different sub-topics related to birthing. This allows us to add pictures at different stages of the birthing phase. We will be taking pictures this year as we birth kids and will be adding the pictures to our web site as they are available. As we always state, we do not consider our self as experts in these areas and we are just sharing our experiences with you. We hope this information will be helpful to you and your herd. Good luck in your birthing.
