I just gave Momma Goat her first round of Ivomec (she looked worse than your girl) and I noticed a HUGE difference in just 2 days, so my guess is worms. Her coat is 100% shinier and softer and her milked has increased, and I can tell she's even getting some "meat on her bones" . . . and, unfortunately her attitude has come back.

Thanks for that bit of info, I will go worm her today instead of waiting for a fecal

the past couple of days has been crazy.
Thursday I went and took my compass testing for college placement. It has been over 20 years since I have been in school. I start back in the middle of August. I scored ok but not as high as I wanted to. I am going back to school to teach school. 4th - 8th maybe high school
I also canned some more gumbo (tomatoes, onions and okra)


Friday was slow. I receieved my ez milker I loved it the first time I used I have not been able to get it to work since. :rant

Saturday and Sunday I watched my grand kids which is always N is 5 going on 6 and starting kindergarten this year and D is 2 almost 3, he is going to miss his sister when she goes to school

congrats on your scoring and going back to school and deciding to teach! My mother is a special ed teacher and it's a very special job. Teachers are special and it takes a special kind of person to be able to teach children. Me, I'd be in jail very quickly. I was a substitute for 1 day (shortly after high school) and decided it was safer for the children if I went into a different profession :) Congrats and good luck!

Have you checked her for parasites? How do her eyelids look?

I like calf manna and really good alfalfa for adding weight.

Pretty goats!
