I have a question regarding what this lump may be. I am not sure how long it has been on this doe but I noticed it a few days ago. It has not changed in size and is has hard as rock! I don't feel fluid around it and I can't move the lump. She has not lost any hair on the lump.
I am completely new to goats and have searched everything and am completely overwhelmed with all the information-especially regarding CL. I feel like I should prepare myself if the results come back as CL positive. I do not know if the previous owner did testing ( something I know to do next time!) so I am unaware if this was an issue in their herd.
She is currently pregnant and I just wormed them 3 months ago and then wormed the other day (just in case that is an issue). Any advice is appreciated! The lump in is under her chin in the picture kinda where the neck and jaw meet.
