**With an enlarged vulva, it is likely that the jill has gone into heat, this
is not unexpected as most female animals will have a reproductive cycle soon
after getting into a stable situation in regards to food, water and a
safe/secure environment. Many of the jills from the rescue are in heat or are going
to be in the near future.
My recommendation would be to get her spayed - yes, it can be done while the
jill is in heat. Alternatively, have her taken out of heat by your vet and
then spay her.**
