I have a question for you folks who have or have had Angora goats. With their long fleece during the winter, how do I tell if the breeding session this past fall was successful, without dragging them off to the vet's for an amnio? It's hard to tell if my boys "got a homerun" or not.... Any help?
I've tried feeling them up - I mean, feeling them - to see if they have started making milk but they were bred late (in November and early December) and I imagine that it's still too early to tell. I can't tell if they are fatter than usual because it's been cold and I left their fleece long this year to help keep them warm. (They've been on feed too for the winter.)
