It is a good idea to bring the expecting mother into an area where she will feel safe before she begins to give birth. This way the mother will not have to be concerned with anything other than the birth of her cria.
When the birthing starts look for the cria's two front legs and head. If you cant see the head, there is only one leg showing, or the cria's tail is showing, call your veterinarian immediately. If the cria birth begins normally though, the birth should be completed in about 30 minutes. At this point the cria will still be covered in the fetal membrane, so make sure the cria's airway is clear so he/she can breathe. You should also watch for the placenta to expel from the mother 4 to 6 hours after the birth of the new cria.
Depending on the weather you can let the cria naturally dry or you can use a towel to dry the cria off. You should then take 7% iodine and dip the nave in the iodine. This is to prevent infection. This area can be an area for bacteria to enter.
Your new cria should then be up and walking around within an hour. The cria should then be able to nurse. You should observer and make sure that the new cria does nurse and seems to be able to get milk from the mother.
After this whole process you now have a new adorable baby cria and a comfortable, safe mother.
