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.
There are a number of reasons for this; weather or climate is generally at the top of the list. For most breeds of goats, the Pygmy goat being the most popular exception, the gestation period of a goat is 150 days, or 5 months. From this number one can easily see that a March (Spring) breeding will yield kidding in July (Summer)... a July kidding will result in a November (late Fall) kidding...and so on.
