To be...or not to be...

Two of the girls should be 25 days along, assuming their pregnancies took. If Daisy took, then she should be around 20-32 days.

At 20 days gestation, embryonic goats are about an inch and a half long and their hearts begin to beat. If I had a good stethoscope, I might be able to hear their little heart beats - if the mom's rumen (stomach) isn't gurgling too much with digestive processes. :)

At this stage, the moms are not showing their pregnancies and you worry a lot about whether or not the goats are even pregnant. Goats cycle every 18-24 days, so goats not coming back into heat again, after being bred, is a good indicator that they are pregnant. It's looking promising so far.
