Scabby lumps on one side - soremouth

I'm so sorry I can't imagine how heartbreaking this whole experience has been for you. I do know that the love and compassion you have for your goats comes through in every one of your posts, and although it may not feel like it right now, I think you take very good care of them.

Thanks guys. Rigor hasnt fully set in, almost, but she gad laid down by the gate in the pen and propped it open. She was starting to bloat up already and god did she smell awful, like sepsis? She smelled like infection and rot.

We are going to treat everyone for worms and watch closely for so much as a cough for now. I am heartbroken all over again.

I am so sorry Sweetened.

I have been reading your other posts, I honestly don't know what to say. This has been such a hard season for you, and I hope its almost over. I think everyone that has read your posts are just devastated for you.

Again, I am so sorry. I really don't know what else to say. I wish there was a way to help.

There aren't any words that I can say to make it hurt less. This has been a horrible experience all the way around and my heart breaks for you. I am truly sorry.

Just for future reference, (praying you never need this), I did have a doe with mastitis and the "milk" smelled horrific and it was a watery. smelly, bloody, pus filled liquid that came out when and if I could get it out. She had lumps in the milk that would totally clog up the teat. I would have to open it with a cannula just to get the milk out. It was NOT blue bag. She recoverd fine but mostly likely due to my inexperience and stupidity she lost the use of that half. It still makes milk but the scar tissue is just to severe to get anything out. If I had to do it again I would have milked her straight through to freshing again just to keep the scar tissue at bay.
