Understanding the Gestation Period for Goats

The average gestation period for goats depends on their breed
  • Standard Breeds (like Nubian or Alpine): ~ 150 days
  • Miniature Breeds (like Nigerian Dwarf): ~ 145 days

These numbers are just approximate, and if you've been around animals at all, then you know they have their babies when they jolly well please. Fortunately, does usually kid within +/- 5 days of their due date.
