I was just curious, has anyone every had to deal with this? If so, can I have some advice?
I have two male goats who are almost 6 months old that are dealing with passing stones. They are not withered yet as I believe in waiting to castrate animals until their the age of one due to personal...
It started with one goat and now it's turned to both of them. Their screaming in pain, their walking backwards and falling down. I thought that it might have been bloat but baking soda hasn't helped at all for these guys. There is no vet open anywhere near here and my goat friend is out of town...
I would love to have your farm! You have so many beautiful animals, I am envious of you.
I haven't managed to make it through the entire post as there is a lot of pages to flip through. However, I have not seen any pictures of your barns and I was wondering if I could see some pictures of...
Okay, I'll give that a go! Thank you very much for the advice.
As for the loose minerals, do you just leave it in a bowl for them or do you mix it with their food? Also, what kind of minerals should I look at getting for them? I was told that they get all their needed minerals from the salt...
I have 2 baby goats that refuse to eat their grain. They love their hay, they love their grass, they love their treats, but they refuse to eat their grain. They even refuse to take a bottle now. I have them on Meat Goat Grower, well at least I'm trying to have them on it, but they just wont have...

I do many things to help insulate my coops in the winter. When my dad and I built it, we put insulation in the walls and on the...
They should be perfectly okay in the coop with a heat lamp. They will help keep each other warm with their own body heat as I'm guessing they'll all end up snuggling with one another. Birds always seem to be extra friendly with one another when it comes to chilly weather(:
Just make sure you...
I just got two little new guys of my own a few weeks ago. I love goats, you can never have enough!
May I ask why their ears are cut off? I've seen it done several times but the people who had them didn't know exactly why they lost their ears. Is their any benefits from them having their ears...
You should of probably titled this post "Donkey" not goat. The wrong people are most likely going to click on this thread. I thought you had questions about goats which is why I came to view it. I'm sorry but I do not have any knowledge of donkeys. I hope someone will be able to help you.
