    Ivermectin for ticks

    I didn’t. I wound up buying a dog flea and tick collar. Worked great. But I also wound up getting rid of the goats. 1 of my dogs hated them and I couldn’t break him. He is one of my main breeding males, so he stays, the goats go.

    Thinking about adding a couple

    I put up 4x4 woven wire, smaller openings at the bottom,when I fenced. I don’t think fences will be an issue.

    So I have a question, posted in goats too. I have some weeds the cattle don’t like, thistle, mullion, etc. would 2-3 goats clean up the weeds or should I keep battling them chemically?
