Quote: CR you used to show!! You know how that goes!!! But, I must say, it's NOT common in a closed herd. I have had no colds, or respiratory infections or anything in the almost two years I've had my goats.
I'm sure it'll be fine.
Yes I did show goats I also made a point to "wrap my stalls" with blue tarps to reduce the contact with others. Also unlike in the poultry world with Pygmy goats EVERY goat got a "health check" before it was allowed to unload. Goats that didn't pass including external parasites were sent home.
Right! but you know that there are lots of people who don't do that, and they get the snots!! I've heard it from other goat showing people too! That was the point I was trying to make, not everyone is conscientious or careful.
