Has anybody heard this? If your goat's poop looks like a string of pearls (string of pellets connected together with mucous), that it's
the first sign of pregnancy ketosis? I have a doe who has four weeks until her due date. She is acting "funny"; staying of to herself, not being the alpha-goat that she normally is. We are sure about the due date- she was not with the buck until she bred. Her urine ketones are negative with Keto-Check. She is eating fine, that is when you find her hiding somewhere. We discovered the string of pearls this evening. Can anybody help?
