    Molasses for NDG kid to give probiotics?

    For sure -- when we got him back on to getting milk at 9 weeks (when he came home) it seemed to clear up some dog poo style poops we were getting.. and turn them back to berries. after each milk feeding his belly seemed to be more stable? I don't know if that's just crazy talk. The "Goat...

    Molasses for NDG kid to give probiotics?

    They did have their vaccines yup! I was hoping to make it an enjoyable process but Carl is probably just gonna be forced if I have to do it. Lenny is the one who had more stress upset from move etc so is more who I was concerned with as Carl seems to be a bit more tolerant system wise in every...

    Molasses for NDG kid to give probiotics?

    In regards to the milk... I was told by a "local" goat lady to get milk back in his diet and then start to cut it out when he was not doing well after the move. She found that goats still getting milk older were healthier? I don't know.. ahh I am trying to figure out what I'm doing with a...

    Ahh thank you -- just trying to figure out what to put the Probios on to make Carl take it. I haven't given them any treats or anything. I was thinking just for while they are being turned out into the yard for the first few times to try out new browse etc just to support their system while it...

    Molasses for NDG kid to give probiotics?

    I should mention they have not had ANY treats outside of weeds put in their pen so far. I've been wary to add too many new foods.

    Molasses for NDG kid to give probiotics?

    I wanted to introduce some powder probiotics to my kids as they start to get small amounts of time browsing and getting some in the yard time.... I have one kid who is still getting 2 ounces twice a day of goat milk but the other is fully off milk. I was going to mix probiotics into Lenny's milk...

    Goat babies are home! Just wondering if this looks like fishtail or am I being a helicopter goat mom

    They do have loose minerals, and a block. The minerals are both cattle ones and I ordered a bag of Manna Pro from Jeffers Pet (I expected that I would find goat specific minerals in the city when I picked them up but I was very wrong... 7 farm feed stores later lol). My Jeffers Pet order should...
