    Just got the results of my first fecals.

    Well, I just got the results of the first fecals that I sent off. Can anyone give me some advice? Should I deworm? Four goats need nothing but maybe three do. At least Cocci is out, I am happy about that. These are my results.

    What qualifications do you have to raise goats?

    Yes but I knew nothing when I first started raising goats in 2007. Started with Kiko, Kiko/boer and 1 boer. This caused me to end up buying a small herd of goats with Johnes disease. I ended up culling them all in 2010 after I finally got tired of all the abortions, dead goats and dead kids.

    Sentry, Baymule’s Livestock Guard Dog RIP 11-11-24

    I have a goat that eats eggs. I had been wondering why I had not been getting any. Then one day I went in to a hen on her nest so I started doing a little cobweb clearing to wait on her. One of the goats was hanging around in there eating hay as well. When the hen ran out with her cackling I...

    Hello, everyone. I am in trouble again.

    @frustratedearthmother Peanut is not pregnant and not going to be for the next year or ever. But would it hurt her since she is not 100% right now?

    How long should I give the vitamin b complex injections? Will it hurt her if I give her the cd&t vaccine now?

    What microscope for fecals?

    I haven't gotten my slide jet, but I wanted to try my microscope. I put a drop of feces/solution on a blank slide and I can't make out a darn thing.
