Hi, I lurk quite a bit and post infrequently, but am in need of any advise I can get. We've been thinking about moving for quite some time and went down to visit Eastern TN last summer. We loved it. We are tired of Lake Effect Snow (8-10 ft in my driveway every year), long winters and NY's...

Lol, now that is a picture. I don't think Dolly would like the cone of shame.. The other girls would probably have fun with it though..

Im just hoping the blue kote keeps the wound clean since I'm putting the ointment on over top. I'm more worried abt how to tell if the udder is turning blue/black when I'm spraying it with blue kote:idunno. Relieved that she doesn't seem to think it's super serious though.

Thank you for the replies.. I'm not one to call the vet for every little thing, and figured I would try here first. Her mamma gives over a gallon a day at peak and given the size of Dolly's ff udder I expect she will also be a good milker. Given the placement of the rub/scrape/injury, I did...

Hi, I know I don't post often, please don't hold it against me. I love this site and am sorry I am not able to participate more. Very sorry, if it seems I only show up when I have a problem (honest I'm here other times, just lurking mostly). Dolly is a FF La Mancha doe - kidded twins (1...

Welcome from Canastota, NY!

Hi. I have a kid born today whise neck looks exactly like your little does and was wondering how she is doing. She looked like a big improvement in that last picture..

checked this morning before work everyone was doing well. I was able to get milk from both sides. hubby will still go ahead and milk her out when he does chores this morning. also watched and heard babies nursing, so I know they are eating from at least the one side. Bali is a bit quiet...

they really are, aren't they, lol.. love my manchas :love . 2 more does to go so hopefully we can get Bali straightened out quickly.

and for the picture junkies out there.

Thank you for the reply. We just came back up from doing warm compresses and massage. We have one side flowing pretty freely. The other side we are still getting clumps out of. They aren't stringy at all, more like hard pieces of congealed milk or dried up cheese. they break apart pretty...

our 2 year old Lamancha Bali kidded twin doelings around 3pm. she kidded no problem, we have a "milk chocolate" brown with tan points and a "dark chocolate" brown with white tipped tail and large patch of white down one side. yes they are adorable. (in keeping with Bali's family (mom-Jamaica...

Thank you all for your responses. I did think it might be the alveoli as there are several and seem different sizes, but here udder is so different from the other girls that it's hard to compare. That picture is great though and the placement of what I'm feeling matches up pretty well. I...

I'll try to be as complete with info as possible, but let me know if I forgot something -Bali is a 2 yr old LaMancha doe; Due April 23rd (day 150), 2nd kidding -No signs of illness -Tested CAE negative last year, no exposure to CL that I'm aware of (we did have a buck on lease last fall, but...

:weee so excited for more babies. I'm glad everything turned out ok. I was watching off and on last night and I knew she was getting close, but she just wasn't moving along. finally I had to make myself turn it off and go to bed. I missed it by oh, about 15 minutes :barnie. congrats...
