So upset - long story / pics - new pics / question pg. 4

[RPC]

I wonder if Freckles + Freeney = Spots? I think it sounds logical.

()Relics was offered Freckles last fall by her original owner and was kind enough to forward this pic to me, when I was telling him how bad she looks now. This was her 1 yr ago.

Rol, I am a complete newbie and you have probably forgotten more than I know, but I had a skinny nubian. I bought her in milk last Mar. She had been well cared for and her provious owner has been my mentor. However, Apple was just bone skinny. She did not like the grain I was feeding and ate very little. Her milk production dropped from over a gal a day at her last farm to barely a pint/day at my place. I tried everything to get her to eat. I read on here somewhere, that a goat person tried calf manna to up production. I tried that. Apple LOVED the calf manna. She ate it mixed with the grain, so she ate the grain and the minerals too. (I feed purina goat chow) She still stayed very skinny until about a month and a half ago. She has put on weight and has a shiney coat. She has also grown hair back where she had lost it in spots. She looks great. I only fed the calf manna for the time it took to go thru 2 bags. By then she was used to the new feed. You said your goats aren't eating very much. Calf manna would be my suggestion to try to get them to eat.

Thank you for the suggestion. Calf Manna was already on my list o' stuff to pick up when I go to work today, but I can *always* use reminders.

Wow she looked like she was super thick and deep. She looks like she could make some awesome kids but after seeing that picture you can really tell how much weight she has lost. How is ()relic I have not seen or heard from him in a while. I actually am not sure if its a he or she because I don't know their first name. How they are doing well.

Try not to be home when I come get Freeney and don't be surprised if Freckles happened to jump in the truck with Freeney. Oh and I bet Levi will break out and come too. I am really going to need to save up some money so I can get a doe out of Levi if she is bred to bullett sometime.

Boy, be glad you're getting Freeney w/out me pulling out a shotgun. I'd shoot ya over Levi. Freckle's is growing on me, too.

I have found a super home for Hannah to go to when she recovers enough. I mean a really wonderful pet home where she'll be babied like she needs.

Mandy's staying here forever. Jury is still out on Freckles long-term chances. Her horns say no but her attitude says yes. Let's see how she behaves when she weighs 200# again.

eta, I assume Relics is fine, he hasn't said otherwise...and he is a he.

Well thank you. That's the first explanation that's made any sense to me....

And that tells me she has been in bad shape a lot longer than he said, too.

I don't blame you if Levi was mine I would shoot anyone that would try to take her. I bet I wouldn't be able to get past edge and gus either.
