Loving the herd life
Things have been going well between the new girl and Ruth. Problem- a few days ago we started noticing she wasn't eating much of her new hay. Her milk production has gone down so we have been giving her more of the old alfalfa she has been eating. Today, she is lethargic and obviously not interested in food. ( I am out of town and have had a really bad day at work and have just learned of this, this evening) She is starting to act all goofy like her 1/2 sister did before she died two days later.
I told my roomy a bit ago to go out and check her temp, gums and eyelids. I hope to hear something soon.
My mentor thought the last girl had some funky strain of tetnus. Both these girls have had their shots. I am getting really confused about all this. Starting to wonder if it is some genetic thing as our new goat looks amazing! Where Ruth has gotten thinner and has never been good about keeping on weight.
