My apologies if this has been addressed.My 7 year old rescue goat is shedding, and the hair is not growing back.I'm thinking vitamin deficiency. Any suggestions on what to use? This is a non friendly goat that was rescued from a slaughterhouse, so shots are kind of tough. I'm not a very goat...

I sold this baby a few months ago as a pet, now the lady can't keep him and is looking for a home for him. I thought I would post on here. He is castrated, born on March 18th and fully vetted. Father was a pygmy and mom was a nigerian dwarf. Very friendly, all white with black legs. PM me for...

Hi Megs, you have a crate to bring them home in, right? And fencing?

Also, fully vaccinated

The scours have stopped. He has been given Valbazen for parasites. Pcn for listeriosis, vitamin B, electrolyes, probiotic paste and miloxicam for pain. He is not stiff (no tetnus). He is occassionally shivering (put a light goat coat on him) drinking; but not much. No interest in food really...

Can I ask what Bottle jaw is? Thanks..............newbie here

I have three, mom, dad and one baby - new goat owner myself - they are nigerian/pygmy mixes and I absoltuely adore them, they are cheap to feed and make great yard weeders. Very personable and I have seen no bad traits in them yet

I bookmarked the link above, thank you - Also, I am so sorry for your loss

Thanks, there's different greens and I waited til it was dry out there, so I guess they are OK - they look FAT

M y goats have been out in the pasture for hours at a time - could too much be a bad thing?

Yup

he's still nursing - should I let it be or do something? If I should, what should I be doing? He's been castrated already, and we are keepinghim

Thanks, guys!

Yup - yours is bigger than mine and I have three goats

It's been about 10 weeks

Do they ever go away? Reason I ask, is that it hasn't and I am getting concerned Thanks

Honestly, hayis about $3 a bale for mine, so it's VERY cheap!

Is it a boy or girl? If it's a boy, maybe you would want to have him castrated? Hay, lots of hay, I give mine horse treats as a treat, but they also love animal crackers, raisins and black oil sunflower seed, which is really good for them

Mine eat hay and the occasional grain, but they love raisins as a treat - the only suggestion I have, is that if you get one, you should have two - goats are like horses - they are herd animals and need companionship Good luck, you will love him/her!
