When can a pygmy goat get pregnant?

Answer 1

Well, if she was a naughty sheep in the night, she'll probably be ashamed and either not tell you for several months, or else she will try to get an abortion to hide her nocturnal activities from you altogether. However, this is potentially dangerous to the sheep, so I cannot advocate abstinence-only education for your sheep if you care about them.

If your sheep has been uncharacteristically hungry or tearful, has suddenly gained weight, or has wild mood swings that leave you dazed and confused in her wake, she may be pregnant. It is important to be honest with your sheep about her possible condition, and for you to get her to open up to you and admit it if she is. She may feel threatened if you try to force this information out of her.

If you suspect that your sheep may be sexually active and are concerned about potential future pregnancies, consider slipping your sheep a box of condoms and/or sitting her down for a talk about Birth Control and STDs.

Above all, it is important for your sheep to know that you will always love her, even if she is pregnant.

Answer 2

If your goat has a big enought belly, quickly press your hand on their belly and if it bounces back then there is a baby there if not then try the other side because all the organs are on one side and babies are on the other. Also if you feel their tail, if you can feel the indivigual vertebre then your goat is super close because their tail becomes limp when they have babies.

Answer 3

Pygmy goats can get pregnant as early as 2-3 months of age, but it is recommended to wait until they are at least 6-8 months old for breeding to ensure they are fully developed. Breeding too early can lead to health complications for the doe and her offspring.

Answer 4

If your goat does not go back into heat within four weeks you can generally presume pregnancy.

Answer 5

2 months. At the earlyest. But it's better to wait til 1 year old.
