120 | It's Not Just a Breeding Behavior: The Flehmen Response in Goats
from Goat Wise | Meat Goats, Feeding Goats, Goat Fencing, Livestock Management · host Millie Bradshaw, MS – Animal Scientist & Rancher
Yesterday I was watering the goats in town, put fresh water in the trough, one of the does took a drink, and right after she drank, she did the flehmen response. That funny lip curl. No bucks around. Middle of July. Not breeding season. And I realized I didn't actually know what was going on. I thought I did. So, I looked it up. Today I want to tell you what the flehmen response actually is, because it turns out it's a lot more interesting than most of us think. Let's get to it.
