adorable.

I agree. we went to show with Roy last year and the skinny bony was a bit distressing for me. I wanted to bring them all home to give them good feedings. Mine are on the plump side but not fat.

You know, thinking back, I did not select the breed of goat I own. We needed milk for a grandson and very badly! Asking around I found Roy who owns dairy goats. During the summer I made at least two trips a week driving 25 minutes each way to get enough milk to feed him plus freeze for the...

I borrowed a buck to breed the girls and my goodness he stinks to high heaven, lol. Being my first season I was able to figure out when the girls were going into heat but wouldn't be able to get to the buck in time because of the owners schedule and my schedule. Since he wasn't using EverReady...

Good evening, this is my first year for goats. We have 2 La Mancha females that we will be bred this month. I've read books on caring for goats starting before we even got them. I feel reading and actual hands on knowledge is completely different. Since we are about to breed them I have been...

Good morning, a couple days ago I noticed Emily had a runny nose. no temp, and was clear. Today I noticed it is no longer clear so I wiped her nose and took it to the vet. I have antibiotics for her Excenel RTU . Does anyone have any idea how long this will affect her milk? Also is it safe to...

H Diamond , thank you for responding. Here are pictures of my lovely Deliah: this is the before picture the day we first got Deliah, she is a beautiful white. this is today, she has the brownish tone to her skin, her shape looks like we are starving her and her eyes/nose are brown. I...

I need help/suggestions. We have had our girls 2 months and I am still very ignorant with hands on knowing what to do. Here is my problem: both got worms pretty bad before I realized what was going on. I thought the herbal wormer was taking care of it. When I realized they had worms pretty...

Replying to my own post. I just got back from the doctors office and found out I have wild parsnips growing on my land where the girls are browsing. Wild parsnip has a chemical that when it gets on you can cause the sun to burn your skin looking like poison ivy or dermatitis. The more sun you...

I have developed a problem I am not sure how to go about figuring out the answer too. Since June I have had what I thought was poison ivy from the goats. I have gone through 2 runs of steroids but before they were each over the rash returned. The hubby is getting very upset seeing me in...

Congratulations on your new goat! They are both adorable

i love my girls and i can't wait till we breed them in the fall.. well I can't wait till we welcome more kids next spring I should say. I can't see me ever having only one goat! Deliah kidded 2 and Emily kidded 1 for Roy this past spring. 1 from each would make me very happy.! I have a...

they are adorable and so little

lol yes I can see the issue with the greenery. I had (had) a potted plant on my deck. Beautiful purple lilies to be exact but after a few knock overs and three flowers eaten I finally retired the container to the greenhouse. I will cut back the greenery and pray the bulbs pop back up into bloom...

A question about the water gun. How are you squirting the water at the goat? towards the ears, nose, head? or somewhere else? I'm having a problem with Emily choosing to do tricky little things like stand her ground when I have her collar trying to walk her back to her shelter. This morning she...

we were in the chicken house so hubby could take pictures of the newly hatched baby chicks under Snowball. When to our surprise we had a visitor behind us and isn't she the cutest little girl!

it was very sweet of you to find him a friend like that, I bet they are having the time of their lives together =)

Deliah is doing much better today. I gave her a lot of special attention. The probiotics seem to have set her to rights. I didn't give it to her today but will give her a second dose tomorrow just to make sure she is set to rights. She certainly ate her full rations today and a bit more which...

hubby made me some large S hooks. I have 2 on the right side and 1 on the left. But I also have gentle La Mancha they don't seem interested in butting things around. I've not had a problem with them knocking it down but they will knock the minerals off the surface to get to the fresher minerals...

I am getting concerned. Deliah is not eating as she should be and is losing weight. Roy seems to think because of Emily becoming the queen when Deliah was at his place. (Emily has a scur) They have never shared a pin before he had them next to each other but separate pins. I've looked her over...
