Caseous Lymphadenitis

[drdoolittle]

Thank you for the input----the goat is probably only about a year old. I don't know how she wouldn't have noticed the abcess----I found it w/in 10 min of her leaving him with me, just by petting him. I'm really, really hoping it's just an abcess.

How do you treat CL? None of my goats have it but there is a goat on craigslist that has it and I was wondering what the cure was?

Thanks

There is no cure for it, however where are you from or what state/city did you see on on craigslist for? We are currently looking for a goat, preferably a pygmy goat with this disease. We had two with it and the older one passed away now and the other one severely depressed, since it is almost a sure thing to infect a healthy one we do not want to sign any healthy goat up for this disease but want a buddy for ours so are trying to find one with it to be her buddy.Thanks!
