She is on Whole cows milk and evaporated milk with vitamin D. I am not sure this is best for her but I do not have a goat to get milk from and what I read about floppy goat and the replacer scared me on that. So like everything else I will take advice. Oh I was thinking for getting butter milk...
Thanks for the support! It means so much. I feel so out of my element. I am used to having information before getting a new pet. I hope I do right by them!
As for Poo I got her some Ivermectin and trying to find a friend to do the shoot for the CD&T. I am such a wuss. I have not been able to...
So up to 8.2lbs today!!
I have a table and chairs set up by places she likes to eat grass. I hope it makes her feel like legs.
I can pick the baby up so I can get on a scale with her but how do I find out how much the bigger one weighs?
She was just under 5lbs on the 12th.
But now I have a new worry. Can I pick her up to much? I do not want to hurt her ribs.
She was a twin I was told at the auction house her mom and sister had been killed. But that is all the info I had on her.
If it is ok to keep picking her up I can see is...
LOL you asked for it.
I wanted to know when I could give her the Ivermectin and in what way I should give it to her. Keep in mind I have never given a shoot in my life. She has lice/mites on her. I have dusted her with 7dust just to keep them from eating her alive but I want them dead dead!
I...
She drank almost 6oz for lunch! I am so excited. I think she has me trained on how she likes to drink from the bottle. She even gave me a tail shake when eating.
Again thank you all for the help!
The Older goat is now hold up in the chicken coop. :rolleyes:
No they are both girls. At least I got one thing right :D
Both of them are not calling much at all now. So I am hoping that is good.
right after I get done reading your post I will make her a hiding hole.
glenolam I can keep the 5 month old goat. I was just not sure if they would make friends. I would like that better than bottle feeding another goat. But I am willing to do anything for this little girl. I am good with a heard of 2 if they will be. When I saw the size difference of the 2 goats I...
I want nothing more than for her to be happy and health. I know how I got her was not ideal and now I am hoping I do not kill her. She had 3 more oz of milk this morning. It is like we hit a wall at 3oz. She even gave me a small wag of the tail when see saw/felt the nipple. I got the best result...
Thank you all for the advice. I made the bottle a little warmer and she took 3oz in one sitting with just a small fight. I will try to get a few more in her before bed time.
Her belly feels the fullest since I have sen her. Still pooping normal. I am trying to come up with a plan for her soon to...
I have goat feed for her. She loves it! I am not sure how much she has eaten as she is a bag of bones and I was letting her eat as much as she wanted.
I have a make shift house till I can make something for her. I call it her day condo.
She slept last night on the back porch. She was not...
Wow I did not know she was that young!
She is not wanting to take a bottle at all. If I have tried a few ways to get her to like it do I just hold her on it when she hates it. I have only been able to get her to take 4oz this last feeding.
She is for real in my backyard so I have a good amount...
This is Winnie. I have no clue how old she is to be able to know how to feed her. I have never had goats before and got this cute girl.
She has teeth on the bottom of her mouth. Do you have any guess on how old she may be? I was told her mom was killed and she needed care. That is all the...
