I have a new goat and her knee's are clicking when she walks. Does anyone know what this is? They don't appear swollen. She is 2 years old, so it's not old age.

I don't know why they do that- but some of mine do too. Perhaps it is poor conformation. But I have heard that reindeer's legs lick when they move, it is normal for them. So I don't get too upset about the goats.
