Lump on Alpine doe goat

[TAH]

• Thank you. You all have been super helpful. I will keep everyone updated. Hope it is not CL.

We have had her for three weeks.

We got the lump gone and then about a month in a half it came back in a different spot. Would you take this as a CL lump? Can you have a goat tested for CL by doing a fecal?

Testing for CL is done either by blood or the discharge from the lump. The blood will tell you if she has been exposed at some point even if she doesn't have an active infection. The lump would be an active infection.

Where is the lump this time?

Did she get another one or did you culture the one from before?
