Totally missed this post before my last reply. :th Glad he's doing better! :highfive:

Wonderful!!! :highfive: Is the one lil guy doing better?

Lately I wonder about mine...:lau:gig

That was going to be my next suggestion! :highfive:

You can try another flavor too. Mine liked cherry the best but I had 2 that preferred pink lemonade..:lau You might also try warm water. Since it's cold, sometimes they won't drink because the water is too cold. Hope it helps, if not will try something else.:hugs

You can use horse paste dewormer. It's all I've used and until recently, I've raised dairy goats for 11 years. If you want to use it, start with strongid ( that's the name brand) it's marked in 250lb increments. Give half of that to babies up to 6 months, one whole for the rest. I alternate...

Yes it's possible. They are herd animals. And the little ones are, by nature, very attached to mom and the herd. He will get used to the change but may need some extra attention and a friend to play with. It that's not an option. Spend as much time with him as possible. Also, has he been dewormed?

At six weeks he will be fine without milk. Make sure you have him on a quality grain for goats. Loose minerals and hay free choice. All the grass and brush his little heart desires. He looks like a content happy baby!:love

Congratulations on the calves Yooper! They look great! As far as they new girl, only thing I can think to add at the moment is be sure you deworm and putting her in a separate pen is fine, if she can see the boys she'll be OK. Expect hollering from her, she may even make herself hoarse but...

So cute! You'll get there..Won't be long!:celebrate That's the whole problem you know....We LOVE those babies!!!:lau
