What to have in goat kidding kit?
My two pygmy goats should be kidding sometime in Feb. (the 8th would be 5 months after they were exposed) and I am trying to get together a “kidding kit” so I can have everything I may need for the big event. These will be my first goat babies so I am totally new to this and will take any and all advice that you guys have to offer. I’ve had a few suggestions of what to have on hand but want to make sure I’ve got everything covered ahead of time as there really aren’t a lot of places to purchase supplies around here so I’m planning to go on a goat supply buying trip this weekend. When I purchased the girls I was told that they should inf fact be bred but I’m planning on taking both girls in to work sometime next week to have them ultrasounded to make sure that they are indeed bred so I don’t waste my time and worry for nothing. Like I said, it’s my first time with this so I’m up for all advice related to kidding. I’ve read quite a few books and articles, talked to others who breed goats
