Loving the herd life
That's what I was arguing. I'm in total agreement with you relics about genetics determining parasite resistance and growth rates all other factors being equal but I'm saying it might be good to hold off on culling until all other things ARE equal. Unless you were breeding specifically for goats that can thrive without coccidiosis preventative and creep feeding, it seems like you should at least level the playing field BEFORE you started culling.Roll farms said:I realize I'm asking for it but... feeding medicated feed isn't 'special treatment'?()relics said:Coccidiosis may or may not be a culling factor in your herd plan but if I have to give ANY goat special treatment then they are a candidate for culling.
