    Barn Cam

    I have a first freshener ready to pop any day now. She is a HUGE, waddling, mess. We installed a netcam in the barn last night and I absolutely love it. I thought for sure she would go last night or today but she is hanging in there. But, since it is a web cam I can still keep a vigilant watch...

    Corrective Hoof Trimming

    I've been watching him since his last trim. He seems to be more correct now. I'll just have to keep an eye on him. And get you some pics. He's a beautiful little guy. He is mini-Nubian but is looking rather stocky.

    Corrective Hoof Trimming

    I have a buck who seems to walk on the sides of his hooves intead of the bottoms. I trimmed them yesterday and did the best I could to try and correct this.

    Newest Baby

    She is a 1st generation Mini-Nubian. I believe her full name is going to be Sweet M'Caprine My Lil Angelface. The only way I could get her to hold still was to scratch her head and ear.

    How do you know of your kid has had a "bad disbudding job"?

    It seems like it takes FOREVER for it to completely heal and the hair to grow back, but it will eventually. I just picked up a 12 week old doeling this weekend and she still has a spot that hasn't healed.

    I guess I will keep an eye on her tonight and call my vet tomorrow. I looked it up online. Lutalyse requires a perscription.

    Miscarriage??? Help Please

    I went out today to trim hooves when I put one of my mini nubioan girls on the stand I saw this. She was with my buck a couple months ago and as you can see has absolutely no udder development so there is no way she could be full term. I felt it and it is still attached to her and solid...

    I haven't had it tested. I've been drinking it for a couple weeks now and my body seems to adjusting. I can drink it now without any problems.

    Raw Whole Goat Milk Gives Me the Poops?

    I'm not lactose intolerant. And I've always drank skim or 2% from the store. I've been drinking it for about two weeks now and its only when I drink a cup quickly. Its not ummm "scours" just a sudden urge to go. Anyone else experience this. As far as I know. No one else in my family is having...

    Nubian Buck Dying,... (Was lost, rest of herd?)

    I would be concerned with vitamin deficiency. Do you have loose minerals available for them? Do you live in a selenium deficient area? Use copper supplements?
