I try to avoid the vet as much as possible. Besides it being 45+minutes one way I hate trying to schedule a appointment around my work and their hours. I did not take a temp. She is absolutely normal except the oozing hornbud.

I cleaned it with iodine but the smell is so bad that I called the vet. The earliest they can see her is Wednesday morning.

5 weeks tomorrow.

I've seen iodine and peroxide but I'd think peroxide would be too harsh.

A friend who I got the mom from did her and her 3 brothers for me

Yeah its oozing, and the smell is not burnt hair or flesh. I've always been told no to ointments because it needs to dry out not stay wet. And it will keep all the nasty stuff in.

My kids were debudded on Wednesday. All looked good until last night at feeding when I got a whiff of something nasty and searched it out. Only her left side is nasty. She is still eating and playing. I have blue kote on hand but what can I clean it with first? Preferences?

Not out of my does but look what I picked up yesterday. I'm still thinking of names. She was born the same day as Molly's kids.

Rowena is bagging up. I'm not sure when she'd be due because I never seen her in heat or bred 😩 going by the other 2 does I'd say end of March or beginning of April.

So I had issues from my one doe. She was all over them at birth but the next day wouldn't let them nurse at all. I made sure she wasn't plugged then penned her against the wall and let the kids nurse. I had to do this a few times a day for maybe 3 days. She was penned up with her babies during...

I'm having the same problem. I had 3 boys and 1 girl born and everyone is <2 weeks old and mounting the doeling. I dont remember my pygmy boys being so bad about it.

Thank you!

2 have. I may have 2 more due in a couple months.

So I just found out that feed with decoxx shouldn't be fed to goats intended on producing milk for human consumption. So even if I stop feed now I won't be able to use the milk from these does for cheese or drinking milk in the future correct?

I talked to the lady I got my buck from earlier and she does have moonspots in her herd. Bucky is getting shaved this summer. He just doesn't know it yet lol his entire front half is yellow/orange right now.

Neither parent are and I know the dams parents weren't. I seen both the bucks parents but if there was spots they were hidden.

Trying to figure out how I got moonspots! I want to keep him so bad! I only have 1 unrelated doe though. You guys know what that means!
