Vet visit after purchase?

[SassyKat6181]

I have a reservation for 2 does, due to be born in March. Do you recommend having them vet checked after I have brought them home? Both parents are double registered and the farm is tested negative. Our horse vet is great, but he lives over an hour away. There are two local vets that I would feel comfortable with for goat care. We do our own horse vaccines and wormers, so I basically just need someone for emergencies.

I don't think it is ever a bad thing to get in a couple of well visits with a vet. Then you have an "in" when you have an emergency. Plus if the vet gets to know you, they are more likely to be willing to sell you Rx meds that are nice to have on hand.
