Do my bees count as a herd?

Don't goats also require minerals (loose) with a high copper content - that is bad for sheep?

Black stone Onyx Smokey Quartz Tourmaline or Schorl Lustrous Black

My guess would be, not being super clean with equipment or washing the udder, or not getting the milk cooled down/strained or handled properly. I don't think they were trying to criticize, just point out that it can interfere with the taste. My vote is either mastitis or the goats age.

I chose nigerians too... for milking and size manageability... Not sure I'd want to be managing them while I was pregnant or just having had a baby though. They can be fun though.........my little buckling hoped up in my lap the whole time I was mowing (safer than having him follow me...

Good job.... (sometime I think they underestimate us girls!)

My buckling that was born Feb 14th.. looks too thin and his coat is very dull. He is a bottle baby and fed whole milk. How long should I continue to bottle feed him? I know I need to do a fecal to check for worms and coccidia. He's had his cd/t shots. Poops look good. He's starting...

Has anyone here used mollys herbal dewormer or other products?

LOL, I went on the link you provided....... and oops! Wrong one, but they have a link on their farm page for http://www.fiascofarm.com/goats/index.htm - which is the site you intended. They must have gotten a lot of goat inquiries!

How do you encourage a bottle baby to start on other foods? Mine has pellets, grain, loose minerals and hay in his pen but he won't touch it. I have been taking him outside to explore and he all wants to do is nibble dirt. How long do I need to bottle feed? I was told 6 to 8 wks.

Everyone is going aww the goats so cute... I'm thinking ...aww you have green grass! LOL! Spring fever here! Your baby is adorable too btw!

He's a Nigerian

Thanks! Did I mention he was born on Valentines day!! His name is Casanova! We love him... though I'm trying not to create a monster..... it's very hard not to coddle him!! I wish it wasn't so blasted cold so I could put him outside to see the other goats. I'm just not set up right yet to...

newbie question....... I have 16% alfalfa pellets (rabbit food).. is this different than regular alfalfa pellets for livestock? I feed my goats all the grass hay they want, they have free range browse, and I give goat feed pellets, a little sweet feed and the rabbit pellets....... am I...

Whoa.. sorry it's so huge! I think he's a handsome little man! Blue eyes and sweet as a button.

My DH is an old goat......... but that isn't helping is it! :lol:
