Is it possible she got bred later? I haven't heard of a goat going past about 154 days. What kind of labor are we talking about. I have seen goats in pre-labor for a day or two. Actual hard labor shouldn't be very long at all. If goat is pushing hard, I expect to see part of a baby within a half an hour or else I am going in to see what is trying to present. You don't want the old girl getting worn out. If the baby is presenting correctly it should be working its way out with those hard pushes.
