    SOS have a hurt baby goat!!!

    Bad news is also good news in that you found what was wrong. Its nothing she can't live with. On the other hand... poor baby. Give her lots of love from me and wishing you and yours a happy thanksgiving.

    SOS have a hurt baby goat!!!

    She looks very content. She also looks to be growing good. She ll eat hay when she's ready and not before. I just made sure mine had it available to her at all times in her dog cage so she could nibble when she wanted. Animals are a learning process. Lots of books written about what they should...

    I think its a great idea. Please post the link if you do start a blog so we can keep updated on yours and cocoas adventures. Your a very descriptive writer so I think you would do good with a blog. Me, I just lay it out in a minimal way that would help no one. Lol

    SOS have a hurt baby goat!!!

    When you take her back have him show you exactly what you need to do with the stretches. She has no broken bones so you aren't going to hurt her anymore. Your going to want her used to handling her legs anyway for when you trim her hooves. : )

    SOS have a hurt baby goat!!!

    When she's laying down id just simply extend her leg then push it back up to a flexed position multiple times. When I got goats I thought I had researched enough but that wasn't enough. I found talking to others who had actual hands on experience helped tons. Books are great to go by but goats...

    SOS have a hurt baby goat!!!

    That's what I did with my bottle baby while she was in the house. Baby wipes or wet washclothes with babyshampoo on them then rinse with more wet washclothes. I also used baby diapers on her when she was out of her pen because her favorite thing to do was chase the dogs then jump on couch and...
