    What should I do with a very aggressive (and getting more aggressive) buck?

    I was given my buck for free because he was aggressive and knocked over his owner. Since then he was okay but he slowly got more and more aggressive. I’ve only been rough when he’s going to ram me or someone else (grabbing his horns and holding/pushing him away) But since my doe had her baby...

    Goat balls on the small side??

    Hi all! Long time page lurker, first time member/poster! 😂 Thoughts on this 9 month old buckling? His testicles are almost non-existent. I reached out to the breeder for help, as this is my first time breeding, and shared a picture of one of hers about the same age. My guy doesn’t even...

    Baby Goat with Pinkeye—Preventative Measures for the Other One?

    Hello from South Carolina. We just got our first two goats and are getting ready to bring home three more. One of our little bucks has pinkeye. I got saline eye-rinse and terramycin ointment for him and I know how to treat him. I'm just wondering if it would be a good idea, as long as I can...

    Would You Wait?

    I have an almost year-old Nubian doeling. And a buckling born March 28. We would like to breed them together and were planning on waiting until next year so he could have a chance to grow more and just find a different buck for her this season. But we are now moving across the country before...

    Descented Bucks

    I've wanted goats for years. My family and I live in town and if the city approves our animal permit, I'd like to get 2-3 goats. I've never thought of getting a buck, even though I want to breed for kids and milk, because of the Bucky smell. However, I just found a Craigslist ad for a DESCENTED...

    Female Rabbit Keeps Trying to Turn Around While Breeding

    New member here! Have a question for those with more experience as I am just starting into this venture with meat rabbits. I have a breeding age doe and buck. I tried to breed them but every time I do, when the buck mounts, the doe always turns around and sticks her head in his crotch and...

    Osiris the buckling

    I own one buckling 9 months (took him from a friend before I knew much about goats) old and am supposed to be getting two more wethers very soon. I was told I can’t have them together because of testosterone problems but can somebody go into more detail about that please? I can seperate them if...

    Down Buck

    Brief history.. My Vet came out 4 days ago approx to evaluate my Buck who has become lazy. His poo is normal and almost text book perfect. He did get into some medicated chickens food prior so our Doc loaded a needle with thiamine and we also checked his eye lids and he was anemic. So we dosed...

    Question

    So I plan on getting a couple Nigerian does here in the future. My goal is solely for milk (and making things from the milk). Since I would just have a couple on a small parcel of land, I really don't want to have to keep a buck and always keep him separated. So my question is, when it comes...

    Warts on bucks scrotum?

    I recently had our buck Casanova on the stand to draw blood for his first CAE/Johnes test and I noticed when taking a gander at his testicles (talk about scrotal circumference) that he's got some warts at the bottom of his scrotum? The area is also bald. He's still in rut so I thought it may...

    Kaye's bunny journal

    I've had rabbits before, but it has been a long time since I've had more than one at a time. We got my buck, Thumper, three, almost four years ago and I got him a doe two months back, Blossom. I was told that she didn't take care of her litters. They had a litter of nice, healthy kits and...

    Disbudding help (warning pic)

    We are first time solo disbudding. Our doe gave us a cute little buck, which we knew would be harder. He was born July second and disbudded at 4 days old. He started to seem to regrow horns so we attempted to reburn last night. One horn was already much larger and we need guidance. We burned and...

    Buck healing after castration?

    Hey everyone! We had our two newest boys wethered at the vet on the 5th. The vet cut them and left them open, everything was great. Both boys are acting chipper as can be, great appetites. One boy looks "closed", like the incision has healed. The other, slightly larger boy, has what looks...

    blue eyed beautiful (shy) buck

    I have been working on this beautiful boy (dodge) buck. He is so painfully shy, I say painful because it is a pain to get any work done on him! I love him dearly and have been making myself present everyday. I guess this is not a question type thread but more of a progressive thread about...
