We have 3 kids that went to the fair with snotty noses and Zamia has a cloudy squinty eye
We had some pink eye this summer with our bucks

They went to the fair with it, or came home with it?
Poor babies. Ours seem okay.... but you also know how I set my pens up and I didn't have anyone against our pens. I don't remember if you had anyone against you or not.

Aw that stinks! Cold tonight too.
So far so good but we are watching- I will say the young ones looked a bit cold tonight - GW put the heat lamp on.
That is the tough part- clipping in late Oct- daytime weather may be fine but daggone, the nights can get cold. Glad we had good weather at the fair.

Hope Zamia doesn't have pink eye. :(



edited for spelling- lol

I hope she doesn't either .

Flys spread pink eye so just keeping your animals separate doesn't necessarily protect

GW and I were talking earlier and we both forgot to give probios- We will be giving probios to everyone tomorrow.
We also forgot our water and had to use the water there- :\

Of course I also didn't know she was feeding alfalfa and I didn't give alfalfa all weekend- just regular grass hay...
oops- she fed all this alfalfa and now the goats that were all home have softer poo.
