I've dealt with it twice, the first time was a four week old kid, she got over it on her own over time, and no one else got it. The second time was I think the year before last, all my goats got it, they looked pretty 'ugly', but otherwise it didnt cause us any issues. I did not get it either...

Where is the baby now? If she has not eaten at all, chances are she will not survive until tomorrow morning, and if she does it's going to be a fight to save her. If you have whole milk in your fridge (or can go to a store and get some), you need to make sure the baby is warm, then warm up some...

To sweet! Can't decide which one is more adorable!

Sorry, I've not been here for awhile and was just going through old posts, so sorry to hear about your lose, I had a feeling that would be it as soon as you mentioned her eyes. I've had two go through it, was lucky to save both mine, althought the most recent has cost me waaay more then she's...

Sorry majorly late (has this little one been born yet?), but there is no chance of tobiano (or tovero), if neither parent is tobaino, it can't be passed to a foal. That said, the foal will definately be red based, 50% chance of getting dun, 50% chance of getting cream, so either palomino...

I've had quiet and loud nubians, ironically my loudest goat of all was my one and only lamancha. I've also had loud nigerians and boers.

I'm sorry, I just really like taking pics, and it seems like a waste if I can't share them. Most of the last pics were of the other kid, I thought this one deserved some face time to, April looking at the boys, pretty sure she knows they're hers (they're on bottles), Flower's being a...

Thank you! I think she likes them though. They hadn't been paying attention to her, but she'd started to walk off (first pic w/ her) and they ran after her, so she came back to 'mother' them, so she must be enjoying the attention! I took more pics this morning of almost everyone, that I"m going...

Born 4/3, last kids of the season, nice to be done. Both bucks, miniature alpines.

5 month is not to old to castrate, you may find him hard to live with in a year or two. And yes the wethers should be fine w/ him.

Most likely no. I've had a few late bloomers, just had one done at 5 weeks, her two sisters were done at 4 weeks, but that is very rare! Until this year I've never had one that I could wait longer then 3 weeks, but these were all does, bucks tend to need it done sooner.

Foxywench that's my Zoe bug behind Sally, I need to get some new pics, this is an older pic, I let the hair on her ears grow out, and she has burgandy streaks in her hair right now. I'd love to see pics of your babies! Ohiogoatgirl they're nigerian dwarfs!

Thank you, I'm pretty fond of Henryetta too! And I do love her socks! Hopefully she'll give that pretty flash to all her kids, she did pretty well with Sally (her oops baby), no socks though, just an anklet. I'm hoping the weather will be nice tomarrow, not sure I can take another day stuck in...

It's raining, yuck (but we need it so I'm not supposed to complain), and my internet has been being a butt all day (not because of the weather, just because it hates me), and I'm are starting to suffer from cabin fever. So thought I'd share some pics I took the other day, when it was abit...

Can't wait to see pics! For future reference I would not feed them w/ a syringe, I would use a bottle, and don't worry about nipple confusion, that's not generally a problem. Most my kids, even dam raised, get their first meal from a bottle, if they are weak and/or it's really cold they may get...

You start w/ a nigerian and a nubian, the result is a 1st generation mini nubian, from there a baby will be one generation higher then the parent w/ the lower generation (so if mom was 2nd and dad ws 4th, baby would be 3rd). They are between 23in and 29in. And FYI, there is no mini nigerian.

I actually had a live kid born this year that looked just like the boy when she was born, her eyes were open though and their hair is alot thinner (she had a normal coat), she was the first of trips and at first I wasn't sure she was alive, her tiny legs were like pencils, her two sisters were...

I quite trying to figure out goat genetics, you just never know what you'll get. Seems like I get atleast one suprise every year, for example this year bred my gold doe to a gold and white buck, and this is what I got, A buckskin. Same gold and white buck w/ a chocolate doe gave me this...
