I just got my first pair of Lamancha/Saanen cross does. I have Nigerians and Fainters too. All of my goats have horns accept a naturally polled fainter doeling. These two came to use without horns...One is expecting and we plan of disbudding all the kids even though we have always been...

Here is Honey Bee's little Doeling Bella!!

I am so happy with the results of copper bolus here is my buck before we gave him the bolus in April. This is how he looks now..I took this picture Monday. he was too busy for me to take the front view..lol. We do give minerals free choice too.

I just ordered my kelp from them..great price for Thorvin Kelp.

I have tears running down my face right now. I am so sorry you lost her.

I love it!!

So sorry for your loss. My doe is a pygmy/nig cross and she had discharge for a few days after birht then about a week later she had that dark color dischrge your talking about. She is 4 weeks out now and all cleared up so I think that is normal.

RIght now I only have enough milk to make soap. But when I start getting more from my other two I will be getting one of those. I am too impatient to skim fat...lol. I have been making soap full time for over a year now and I still get impatient with it.

He is beautiful!

What wormers would you suggest that is best for a quarantine drench? Since I have the Ivemectrin Plus which other? Safeguard?

Is Ivemectrin plus ok to use though? The vet told me it was but I have not used any yet since they are fine. I have been using the herbals though and I hope that works because I like that idea better than the chemicals. I didnt quarentine mine since I didnt have any goats to start out with...

I am sure others will chime in as I am new to goats too. I had a pregnant doe too starting out. Here is what the vet told me to do on her over the phone. Bring her a fecal sample(it checked fine) and also I should check her lower eye lid on the inside for pink. The darker pink the better...

I would also check thier eyes to make sure they are not anemic. Just pull down thier bottom lid and make sure it is a healthy dark pink color. My vet told me to do this.

:DThis morning I went out and milked Priscilla for the first time. She gave me a little over half a pint I could have gotten more. Not a whole lot but its a start since she still has twins on her. She is also a pyg/Nig cross. I am so proud of her! I removed her babies(they will be 4 weeks...

I would like to have hornless goats but this is a compromise between me and my husband. He think goats should have horns. I have looked up nigerians with horns on google. SO HARD to find. Thank you for all the input. I am kinda convinced she is but until I breed her and see that udder...

I would be happy with that too!

Ok...so I looked at her teeth and her two front ones are just growing in. From what I have read that means she is around 12 months old?

I am new too but for the smaller breeds I think it is after they wean the babies. I am sure someone will chime in soon.

Thank you!
