I hope he pulls through. Im sorry that you and your little goat are going through this. I have to say though how impressed i am with how well you rose up to the situation when most people would have chosen to euthanize him. I honestly hope the poor little guy makes it in the end. no matter what happens you did well and everyone here is proud of you and your choices so far! Hang in there

Guys I’m more confused then ever. My goat seemed to be eating less yesterday and this morning and now he’s eating hay crumbs. I’m still sure there is bone sticking out of his gums but maybe it’s not a big deal??? I don’t know how it could NOT be painful. Guess we’re back to wait and see for the vet appt Friday.

He does seem to be feeling better which is the confusing part considering the bone pieces sticking out. He’s jumping around on stuff in the garage more and crying more when locked in his kennel. I gave up on putting him with the herd this week cause he fights me when I try to walk him out there. But he seems to enjoy jumping around the garage though. Due to work and kid stuff I can’t get him to the vet before Friday. It’s a teaching hospital an hour away and going in for an appointment always takes up half my day. But if he goes down hill I could take him as an emergency.

Thank you! He seems about the same today as yesterday. Eating grain well, still not much hay but drinking really well. I did notice him following the herd around the pasture more but he still likes to hang back in the barn quite a bit. My husband thinks his pain level isn’t bad enough to euthanize based on how he’s acting but I’m not sure. Really hoping the vet can give me some guidance tomorrow.
