You guys must think I'm the most inexperienced goat person out there. Lol. And really, after hearing all of this... I am. I never did 4H w mine. They are strictly my pets for me to love. And other than a few bumps in the road here or there. We haven't had too much of a problem w them. My...

She isn't a pasture goat. We give her grain and her hay. They both get like a cup of grain a daym Every now and then we will stick her out in the field to eat up some grass , but it's not often and obviously not lately.. They have the run of the whole barn. And then the outside part of it.

We just said about calling another vet in. Your right. She doesn't look good. Her hair is rough looking. But It has been. I just took it as being 10 years old. I'm sorry. Her feed she gets is supposed to have all that mineral stuff and what she needs in it. She does have a heart mummur. The vet...

I'm from Pa. She did get a few vit shots when the vet was here. And she has one more shot left for that whole worm thing she had/ has going on. The vet should be calling tomorrow with the blood results

Yes :\ She Does have hair there. It's just very thin. It's not just bare skin. But not like it should normally be

There's my pretty Bella girl. :love We didn't get a video at this time bc ya kinda need two ppl to help lift her. To get her front and back side. And in wasn't able to go out. The kids are in bed. But those are the pics we got.

I absolutely will!

Her body condition is not great. Thin and very boney. We have a neighbor who is a goat farmer and she noticed last year sometime and made the comment that her neck and hips have been shrinking up. She's been healthy but over the past year she has really thinned out. She has never finished her...

Just from what the vet had said. I guess she thought maybe it's a possibility. That's why they r running another blood test on her. That it normally happens in cows , but it's not unheard of of goats to get it. do you thinkher symptoms and how she is now is not related to that? I've never even...

well new day, new update. Her blood count came back normal. So not anemic. We are thinking she has that "wasting disease" I don't know too much about it expect for what my husband has told me. Just that she got it, if that's the case, when she was a kidd. From her litter and it normally...

Yes. They did give her thiamine. But he said only one dose of it! so hopefully whatever they gave her today then will work. And it was enough. And the blood results come back with something. So then we know what to fix. Yes. We , well he knows more about all of this farming stuff then myself. I...

Hello farm friends. Update on my Bella girl. The vet came back in today. This time the same one girl and a different guy. Which I was happy about. Get a new opinion on things. We showed the messages that @Goat Whisperer suggested and I guess they did give her the one kinda med you said. And...

we really are trying everything we can think of. I will keep you all posted. Thanks for all your kind words.

Not as of yet. We called the vet this am, but of course with the holiday they were booked. So they said first thing tomorrow morning. Her head has been up each time we go up. Expect for once on Sunday. Where she needed help with it again. So I don't know if she just hasn't been putting her head...

No change this AM. still can't lift her head by herself. But once it's up , she's good to go. I looked at her eye lids. And they are pink /red. Her eye itself is white, but eyelids are pink. We are definitely calling the vet Tuesday and letting her know about those meds. I will definitely keep...

Your information is great. I can't thank you enough. Really. Good or bad outcome, Thank you for taking the time to help me and explain things to me. I am screen shotting all of your information to show my husband tomorrow and that way we (he) is sure to tell the vet. I am in PA

I'm not sure if she said how bad it was. She said it concerned her bc she didn't know if she was doing this bc she was going into heart failure or if she had the worms back. But then after the test, we found out she did , which we don't think we ever got fully rid of them the first time around...
