    2 in one. weaning & breeding doe.

    You could wean him at 8 weeks to 3 months old. Signs of heat may or may not include: tail wagging, sticky goo dripping from vulva, snorting, they may get friendlier or more "needy", crying out for no reason, etc. Edited to fix my info (I was thinking about weaning doelings- sorry!)

    New buckling, when can he breed?

    Here are a few excerpts from a web page called Fias Co Farms (https://www.fiascofarm.com/goats/buck-wether-info.htm#keeping). I recommend you check it out for info on keeping bucks. Hopefully these two excerpts will answer your questions. "Breeding: What age can a buck breed? Believe it or...

    Sudan Hay

    I normally feed orchard grass hay on a daily basis and give alfalfa a couple times a week- but MAN California prices are ridiculous ($14 a square bale)! I asked about Sudan hay because I found some for sale for about $9 a bale- still pricey but cheaper than what I am used to paying. Now I know...

    New buckling, when can he breed?

    Bucks can be fertile as early as 2 months old, BUT I would recommend breeding closer to eight months old.

    Sudan Hay

    Is it okay to feed goats Sudan grass hay as their sole source of hay? In the summer the pasture grass is dead and brown so they have very little forage. My milker gets grain but not the others.

    Shots and worming

    My goat just kidded yesterday so when would be a good time to worm her? I have Ivomec Plus (cattle injectable) but I'd give that to her 1 cc per 33 lbs orally, correct? Also, when does she need her next CDT shot? She received her last CDT a month before she kidded. Should I give her more...

    What's with her udder?

    I went out there and offered them a bottled but they didn't seem hungry. So then I massaged/yanked at her udder and the teats started filling up and I was able to get milk out of them. The babies seem to be happy and nursing so I will keep in eye on everything but it seems good otherwise. The...

    What's with her udder?

    I'm really worried that my baby goats from last night aren't getting any milk. Her udder and teats were fine when they were born and they did get milk from them, but now its like her teats never filled back up with milk. The teats are all deflated, but her udder is still full. The babies are...

    How do I find info on these nubians??

    They look really nice to me! I have nubians, and yes they do tend to look thin but that doe looks a little too thin right now. One of my nubian does looked like that when I got her but she fattened up quickly. Just make sure it's not worms that is causing her to look thin. Ask if they have been...

    mama pics pg 2. THEY'RE HERE! baby pics coming soon

    As some of you know, I had a "newbie crisis" some time earlier because I wasn't sure of everything that needed to happen before my doe kids. But I think I've gotten everything sorted out :). She's been given all her needed vaccinations and supplements and I have her birth kit ready, so all I...
