How big are baby goats?
The size of a kid at birth can vary quit a lot. The larger breeds such as Saanens can have kids that are quite large – I have seen 14# kids but usually they aren’t that big. Nubians tend to have smaller kids, 6 to 10 pounds. Yearlings mostly have smaller kids. Multiple births have smaller birth weights as a rule. Quads and quints can be VERY small – 1 to 2 pounds or smaller! For more information on kidding and kids, read Kidding Begins With Pregnancy.
