Thank you, he seems to be doing much better with electrolytes in him. We switched him to formula, he's regained control over his neck and most of his front legs, if the condition plateaus its nice to know B1 is on hand!

We've been raising goats for about 9 years now, our best mother gave birth to twins back at the end of November. The kids have been healthy and smart, have all their vaccines and heads burnt. The mother has been acting strange towards them, won't let them nurse much, but still cries for them...

Hykue, personaly I think my "noisy" traits corrispond with the parents. Annabelle's kids are allways quiet and gentle, and Daisy's are obnoxious and jump up on people. lol (Talking about two Saanens)

Saanen's are large goats. They tend to be on the quieter side, but I have one that is very loud. She's also not the brightest of the bunch either. The others are very smart, and are taught things farely quickly. I've taught them to go straight to the milking stand, and to turn their heads to the...

We bred our Boers and Saanens with a home raised boer buck. Sadly, none of our boers were actually bred. We now have 2 wethers and 2 doelings for sale. 3 months old. If they are not sold to a good home, to keep them, we are selling/showing them for meat this fall. Their dad has a black head...

Haha, thanks... he's a big little sucker now. We have two ones that are a week younger and a 1 two weeks younger.. and he looks like he's about a month older than them all. He's getting big fast... Probably arleady around 30 (maybe more)... I need to weigh him... (he's not even a month yet :P )..

He's gorgeous.. even at such a young age... a keeper :)

How much should a newborn boer goat gain in the first week? I've had the biggest set of twins yet, both at around 12 lbs, the one closer to 13. The larger one just gained 5 lbs his first week. Is this good, average or poor? Just asking :P

I breed my Saanens to boers because we can only keep so many dairy as it is... My one Saanen isn't the best of quality.. but she produces great crosses. The crosses I find are better than what I've had with nubian crosses, but my does are also very large. The crosses aren't as heavy as the pure...

Where did you get Bullitt? He looks great... :) Sat. looks good too, ofcourse.. I just like my reds and browns lol ;)

They have everything they need :rolleyes: :) I'm sure of it. We decided to let him out in the day with his mom, and at night bring him back into the garage and see how he does then... Thanks for all the advice..

Okay.. I think I have my favorites... can you pick yours out of mine? RRK Toboton Django http://www.biogenicsltd.com/b236.html DSM Jeremia http://www.biogenicsltd.com/b070.html JJJR Beau Duke http://www.superiorsemenworks.com/xcart/product.php?productid=648&cat=0&page=1

No, you didn't worry me... :) He doesn't put pressure on his one back leg much though... can it heal? I'm worried about him, he's not taking the bottle like he did yesterday.. he refuses it.. but yet he doesn't holler (he'll squirm though). How much milk should he be drinking if we feed every 1...

I have Saanens, and I love them. No one says they have much personality, but I believe mine do. They will talk to me and are my big babies. My one loves to be shown, my other loves to be scratched, my other one just loves attention... They are good milkers, and are very hardy animals if you get...

Yeah, I'm looking for a bigger more old fashion structure, but more importantly meat fast... It's hard to choose. Most breeders I have found that offer any AI have the thinner modern look I'm trying so hard to strive from... I just went to a show last fall, and I saw what I was looking for. None...

Awe that's a shame... he has the longest cutest ears :(. They aren't folded, that's happened before... I'm not sure about his legs... he's walking, but not very well at the momment... He gets to where he wants to get but he is very wobbly... What should I look for in his legs? What could he...

These are them :) . The cutie in the front is the one that past. Annabelle is scrunched up in this picture.. she's a lot longer/larger than she looks. We have her in a pen, and inside the pen is a wooden "crate" that has a heating lamp, this is usually where they give birth and where the little...

We decided to cross our Saanens one more time with a good boer. The babies allways come in a variety of colors, are healthy and strong, and grow at great rates. Annabelle, my first goat gave birth to her first cross kids, just yesterday, to two little boys. The one was found frozen this morning...

Hi, I'm not much with cows but I think you could apply a similar solution with my own. I raise goats. I use PVC pipe and 2x4's. I make a divider in the stall, and inbetween the bottom and top parts, which have circles drilled into them where the pipes will be place, the pipes line up...

Okay, I'm choosing from this collection. My inseminator uses them and swears by them and will also make a purchase with us for lower shipping costs. How do you think is the nicest? http://www.biogenicsltd.com/boer.html
