Hi Everyone!!!!!! Chunky Dunk is back!!!!!:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate I have missed the heck out of y'all!!! Lots has happened with us (and I see the website too). I was fired February 12. It was bad, but a blessing. No one was really surprised, I had been unhappy quite awhile. I've been...

East Texas Goat Raisers Association April Showers Dairy Goat Show Saturday, April 12, 2014 at 9:00am Navarro County Expo Center in Corsicana, Texas. Anyone know where else I can post this to get the word out?

I believe they are 27 days old today. So a couple more weeks . . . I'm also putting deposits down on two new doelings that are due in December and selling my Emma. My girls are just so mean to her and she will be going to a great home. May be selling Fudge after she kids, we'll just have to...

Nope I haven't picked him out yet AP :( I'm going Monday after work to check on them and I'm hoping I get to handle them. There are solid white one and ones with big brown spots (Badger?) and the owner said the colorful ones were the more popular, but I'm really leaning towards a white one...

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. There just isn't enough time in the day. We did ok at the show. Not as well as I hoped, but good. Several people came by our pens and said we had nice looking goats. Fudge has mastitis. I've treated with Today and PenG. I will now wait and send a milk...

so much has happened since I last wrote. We are just too busy. School has started. DD has her first BB game tonight - I will miss it - can't get off work :( Had "the talk" with her the day before school started - she looked at me like I was stupid the entire time and asked "are you done...

box says 'maximum 2 treatments' but I read on one of the forums where someone said use 3-5 days. How long should I use it (I gave one treatment last night and 1 this morning because box says 12 hours between treatments) and when should I notice a difference?

so happy to hear about the kids!!!! yahoo!!!!! :celebrate

well Zoey's not preggo - confirmed by vet. very disappointing but breeder I bought her from will reimburse me the extra money I paid - so I'm happy about that. starting to gear up for buying show supplies. we now have a pig next to the goat pen. The goats are NOT happy about this. killed...

what do I need in my medicine chest for show? stop bleed? bag balm? scissors? tea bags? I have no idea. any suggestions?

ragdoll, I am going to give her until this Friday before I make a trip to the vet's office. Maybe I'll come home and viola she will have birthed out a perfect buck :) (I'm actually wanting a buck this time). One of the things I've noticed is she has lost some weight since she's come to my...

Zoey was due last Thursday (June 27th). The former owner and I met at a show to exchange goats. She was approx. 4 months along at that time and HUGE, she was also quite a bit overweight. Her udder was filling out nicely. We brought her home and I'm positive the baby has died. There is no...

Fecals are $18.50 each at my local vet. I took fecals from Masey, Daisi, and Emma, all of whom I felt needed worming (everyone got wormed this weekend because after a better look at their eyelids, I felt everyone needed it - I felt they were a 2 on the Famacha scale). Results: Oesophagoslomun...

Ok that's what I had hoped. Will update with what vet says. Thanks!!

called the county extension office to find out who I need to call to take the certification course and they said they have never heard of this and have no idea what it is. Does anyone know who I might be able to call to get information?

in the morning. Stupid question - do I need to taked fecals from all girls that need to be wormed (I use the FEMACHA method) or is it ok to take from just 2 or 3 (I've only got 5 does & 3 doelings but not all need to be wormed)? I treated with Cydectin less than a month ago & copper bolus 2...

adorable :)

I've been happy with the copper; however, I think this last round (1) either didn't get enough in them or (2) I don't believe it treats roundworms, so . . . I treated Daisy with Cydetin and probios and she's back to her old self. Checked everyone's eyelids this weekend and a few need worming...

I received my seller's license for poultry a couple of months ago, I didn't know you had to get one for meat. Is this strictly for processed meat? Or are you referring to a special license to sell a meat goat? Where do you get all this time? I swear, I don't have enough time during the...

I've been spraying Vetrimycin spray on her twice a day and it seems to be healed over and the scab is starting to flake off in spots. I also just received some Vetrimycin hot spot and in the next day or two I'll probably go head and take the rest of the scab off and start applying the Hot Spot...
