Goat with broken jaw? HELP!!

[willkatdawson]

how's she doing this evening?

Well she is trying to eat and she is at least drinking as well.. I gave her some sweet feed today.. She wasnt able to eat much of it.. Someone suggested horse feed made into a mash? Opinions?

Sounds like a great idea. Every since my horse had colic I feed them a "soup" of pellets, and wheat bran. I add aprox a solo cup full of each bran and feed to 1/2 gallon water to make it REALLY soupy. They just drink it down, I'm sure she would get the hang of it on no time.

One of our dogs completely bit the left side of the bottom lip off one of our goats. There wasnt anything to stitch so figured Id wait it out. Gave pen. injection. The darned goat healed completely. She went from 1/2 a bottom lip, to an entire lip. It grew back, amazing. Im sure proud flesh but it was the weirdest thing. Dont be suprised if your goat doesnt suprise you too.
