She is pregnant :woot! Her udder has been filling up since this last post :celebrate. I lost my calendar so I can't find the actual date I bred her. (I thought it was November :idunno) Just wanted to let you know and thanks for the reply!

She's a Nubian mix I think. I found a pic of her last year 10 days before she kidded. She had 2 kids. Her milk didn't really fill up til the day before. Not a very good pic. But maybe I'll have to wait n see if she goes into heat.

Do you think my doe is pregnant? I believe she was bred sometime in November. I don't know the exact date. I didn't suspect she was pregnant til I noticed her left teet (I dont know if that is what its called lol) has gotten a lil more swollen than normal. but it hasn't really changed in size...

*UPDATE* Called the vet today to get results of fecal exam and they said everything was negative? Cocci, worms parasites etc.. They said the lab checks for everything and didn't find anything. So what caused the white poop??? I may never know. But it did change back to yellow the same day I...

Do you think if the mom has cocci, it could have passed to the kid during pregnancy? I don't know, maybe a silly question...I got mom in March and she has not had any scours or any abnormalities...?? Still waiting for the call from the vet. Hi temp today is 103.3. Three days ago-103.7...

Don't throw away those empty milk bottles. Clean them out really good and poor the goat milk in there. He won't be able to tell the difference!! My 16 y/o daughter refused to try our goat milk til she found herself eating cereal with....yes....GOAT MILK! haha! I tricked her and she didn't even...

x2 I also do the bleach with about a drop of dawn and use washcloths. Just toss them in the washer with bleach. I use empty glass jars from like empty coffee jars or anything glass jar with a lid. I strain the milk with the coffee filter and get it in the freezer to get it cold fast then put...

:clap no cocci?? :woot I did notice that his poo turned yellow again after I gave him ProBios. Don't know if that helped. But I was thinking maybe his poo was white because he wasn't digesting his milk? But it is still runny and his gums are pale. So that concerns me still. Did give him a...

Ok, well thank you for the info. I will update when I get the fecal back. Hope everything is ok.

:woot I hope so! I just came back in and he is more active. I was thinking about it and it has been hot 102* during the day so maybe he is less active cause it's really hot. Is it normal for his poo to be runny? When does it start hardening up?

I saw him nursing more yesterday than I have today. But her udder isn't full so, maybe he is doing it when I'm not looking. I went out there right now and he was kicking like a wild bull paying around. His poop isn't really yellow anymore. It's a little more greenish like a really light green. I...

Unfortunately, the feed stores around here don't know what I'm talking about when I asked if they carry that. They don't seem to carry many medications. Mostly feeds and supplies. I do have one other source that I don't think I have checked yet. I'll try tomorrow if I don't get the fecal back by...

He isn't running around like all day. He will get up a few times a day and run wild and kick his legs and the hairs on his back stand up. Then he will lay and sleep for a while. He does walk around with his mom. So he's not sleeping all day either. I don't really know the normal activity for...

Thank you very much for this info. I guess I have to wait for the fecal..Hope it's ready tomorrow. :fl

True. Just wanted to make sure he wasn't too young. Thank you.

Oh and I forgot to add, his temp is 103.6. yesterday it was 103.7 so I guess it's not getting any higher?/ Good sign?? :fl

Well,l finally got the fecal into the vet late this afternoon. Every time he would poop, my goats would kick dirt on it by accident by the time I got over to him. So finally got it and the vet tells me that the results will be in by tomorrow but if it's not, it won't be in til TUESDAY!! :somad I...

Thank you! I have that on hand!

He does have a temp 103.7. Normal is below 103.5? He is still nursing. He scours are yellow again. They were white this morning. I went to all the feed stores and NONE seemed to be able to help. The ONLY thing I was able to get is Penn G. Should I give that to him? I took a stool sample to the...

I gave him a little ProBios a few hours ago. I just went to check on him right now and he just pooped and it was kinda like toothpaste consistency and it was yellow again?? I'm about to head out to the feed store in a few minutes anyway to have some things on hand. I was reading about giving CD...
