Hello all,
I went to the livestock auction yesterday and picked up some goats. I got a Pygmy Nannie and her 3 day old kid, what I was told is a Boer Nannie kid and an unknown.
Here are some pictures.
This is Sunny. I'm not sure how old she is. I tried to bottle feed her just in case she was just taken from her Mom but she didn't really want it. She is eating regular goat feed. I was told she is a boer but I don't know the different breeds yet.
This is Spice and her kid Sugar.
This is Sugar. She was born on 7/18.
This is Peanut Butter. I don't know what breed he is. Anyone know?
Here is a better picture of his face.
I have them in isolation from the sheep. Peanut Butter has a cough so I bought some terramycin. I'm going to start them on that until the vet can come out and look at them.
I had never been to a livestock auction before. I was SHOCKED at the condition of some of the animals... mainly the sheep. There were many sheep with prolapses, one had a tumor which I thought at first was her udder and many had injured or broken legs. Some of the goats look like they had been starved. It was so sad.
Thanks!
Tami
