Those times are: When you are driving down steep hills. Sure, Iâd seen it done before. On our family vacations growing up, Dad would drop the old-fashioned dashboard gear shift lever down a notch every time he went down a steep winding hill. Then kick it up a notch at times. Then, back down again.
The average goat gestation period is 150 days, and the first 3 Â½ months are considered the early gestation period. During this time, the embryo(s) grow slowly, and there are usually few observable changes in a doe.
Puberty is from 4 to 12 months (females between 7-10 months and males 4 to 8 months). The natural life expectancy for goats is around 8 to 12 years and in some cases, goats can live over 15 years. Dwarf does can have several kids at a time, 3 and 4 being common with some quintuplet births occurring.
