If it is a pain reaction check her feet to be sure she has not picked up a stone or nail or something. A friend just went through this with her horse, he was lame for no reason. When
goathater trimmed him there was no less than 6 short nails in the sole. They were in deep enough that normal cleaning did not find them. Also since goats jump and wrestle like people kids it could be possible she has a nerve pinched or muscle sore someplace. If she is sore in both front or back legs she will not look to be lame. There are also animal chiropractors that can readjust and line things back up. Personally I have not used them but know of people who have most feel it was a good idea. Keep us posted on her Good Luck
