Naomi was not supposed to be bred, but one of the kids let the buck out to graze with the other goats without putting his anti-breeding apron on, so Naomi got bred.
We were not aware that she had been bred at that time, though, so we were surprised a few months later when she started developing an udder.
On May 9th or so, her udder was suddenly huge. I checked on her throughout the night, but no babies.
This went on for a week. She even went into false labor a few times.
On May 17th, she had a one inch drip. We let the goats out to browse and then put them in on time, and she was acting perfectly normal. We checked in on her 15 minutes later and she had twin doelings with her!
One looked just like the other kids of the year and we named her Lydia.
The other one had blue eyes, elf ears, and some black markings. We named her Tabitha.
We will be retaining both doelings.
