    HELP! Early Birth!!!

    I so agree. As sad as it is, there is always something to be learned from the experience. Now after it has all calmed down, I am really happy that I have the picture of them anyhow. Even though they didn't make it, they were still our first ever kids and they were so gorgeous. (The little...

    HELP! Early Birth!!!

    Thanks everyone! I so appreciate the support, encouragement, and advice. :) Miss Maybell is doing well. She appeared to have passed everything without a problem and is eating well. Treating all the animals with suggested remedies and crossing my fingers that in a couple of weeks I hope to...

    HELP! Early Birth!!!

    WARNING: Picture below is a little sad and graphic...do not keep scrolling if you are sensitive to goat tragedy. This is the twins. They were precious for the little bit of time we had them. :) The dark one was a little doeling, the white tri color was a little buckling. ETA...

    HELP! Early Birth!!!

    Thank you for the response! I am not for sure for sure when her due date should have been. She ran with our buck for 5 weeks starting November 7th, 2010. But yes, a couple of weeks away still. We have one more doe due that was bred by the same buck who should be due the same time Maybell...

    HELP! Early Birth!!!

    Its okay. :) It happens. I just really wish I knew what caused her to loose them. No sickness in our herd. Up to date on all vaccines etc. She has given birth once before to term to a huge buckling. (This is her second freshening as a 3 year old) Sad that this happened with our first...

    HELP! Early Birth!!!

    My previous optimism is gone. :( Both little ones, a doeling and a buckling are not going to make it. Their little hearts are still beating, but we are getting no muscle reaction and they have no muscle tone at all. I have a photo of them, and if someone can handle seeing it, I would love...

    HELP! Early Birth!!!

    My girl Maybell just gave birth to two teeny tiny little babies. They are so small. Not able to stand, eyes aren't even open. But they are alive! And kicking! And appear to be breathing! Is there anything that I can do for them? I am fully prepared that they will die, but if there is...

    Do goats get Heart worms?

    Okay, so I don't know the *technical* answer to this question...but here is a bit of info! We cover our bases with that (because I thought the same thing!) with Ivomec. After a bit of research I found that the active ingredient in many heart worm preventatives for dogs and cats is ivermectin...

    How to entice a new bottle kid to eat?

    Thank you! I needed a hug! The little dork just doesn't want to eat. This morning I got him to eat 2 ounces without a massive struggle. But once he got enough in his tummy that he didn't feel *hungry* anymore he decided he wanted nothing more to do with the bottle! I swear...this is my...

    How to entice a new bottle kid to eat?

    Hahaha thanks, Roll. I tried the bowl last night but he just dipped his face in it for a second, looked back up at me like, sneezed, and promptly ran away. Then his piglet of a brother (whom has already had his bottle) decided it was his. Ugh, I wanted so badly to wait until he was weaned...
