I have two 4 week old Spanish doelings and I'm wondering how much milk their suppose to be drinking. They are bottle babies. And they usually such down 16 ounces and still want more. I'm offering pellets and hay. But they hardly eat it. They are feed @ 8 am, 2 pm, 8 pm.

We got the girls disbudded. Not the best experience. But they are doing great. And we think we did it right. Got the good copper ring but we didn't knock the cap off. DH said the instructions didn't say too.

One more questions. I'm sorry for so many questions. But do I give the tetanus shot before I disbud. And can I give shot and disbud same day?

Thanks everyone

Okay I'll order the promethrin, it'll take 10 days to get here. Can I use the dust Co-Ral till then?

I'm going to check TS to see if they have Co-Ral

Here's the bugs.

Okay I just shaved Adel and Ria heads for disbudding. They have a bug infestation. The bugs have a white butt and tan body. What are they and how do I get rid of them?

Thank you

Disbudding iron will be here today. So will vaccines to give goats. Seriously nervous about disbudding the girls. But on a lighter note they will be getting shots. On the pneumonia shot when do I give it?

Thank you Southern by choice

That's what I was reading. So I'm ordering the iron and going to have it expressed or something. Yeah I'm really nervous about it. But I guess the Lord thinks were ready. :)

Awe thanks. Yeah I seem to be way out here. Away from everyone that has experience in what I'm jumping head first into. Lol

We don't really have an actual feed store. We have a Tractor Supply but the people who work there aren't the most competent people. Even the vets looked at me weird when I asked if they disbud kids. I think my husband and I will just have to watch tons of videos and order the disbudding iron...

Everyone in our town has horned goats. :( And neither of the vets have experience with goats. Even the one that's a million dollar facility.

Thank you. Is having them disbudded a surgical procedure. Because our two Vets don't disbud and our ag agent said he can't do it because it's a surgical procedure. I'm so doomed. It's going to be a arm and leg to get it done at a Vet around here.

Okay I just wanted to make sure. These are our first babies so.. I'm nervous about everything. Thank you

This is picture of poop.

Bottoms covered. There isn't any poo in the straw.

I don't think the dam was vaccinated. And I do not know if they got colostrum. The poo is watery now with squishy in it.
