She is very pretty! her face looks so sweet. I can't wait to see baby pictures, good luck on the kidding and thank you for all of the pictures!

:welcome from South FL!

:lol: I live in South, FL really really south so it is like a 3-4 hour drive for me.

I was going to buy those 2 but they are a little to far away for me, the owners of the farm are very nice people.

fish tail is when the tail hairs separate making it look like a fish's tail right? I googled and just came up with Goatfish! If that is what it is, than she never had fish tail. The rest of her hair is shiny and soft now, she does not have any coarse red hairs growing in now. Thank you so...

a week after we got her reddish hair starting showing, so I got her a mineral block and then realized that it was for sheep and goats, no copper :( so I gave her more minerals, I looked closely at her hair, only the tips are reddish now, not any new hairs, so how long would it take for the hair...

What could I do if minerals are not enough? I got her when she was a kid, she was all black then, now she has some white spots and some reddish, could it just be hair color? her father has some reddish hair, but it is quite possible that he is copper deficient also (the owner doesn't give any...

It is not hair loss at all, she has thick shiny black hair and no lesions on her skin. My other goat does not have any reddish, only her. I am feeding minerals for goats. Thanks for your help! ETA: it is not a ton of reddish, just a bit on her legs and a bit along her spine.

My goats are eating (rationed according to the instructions on the bag) Purina goat chow and free choice coastal hay and minerals, yet one of my Does has reddish on her legs and spine, I read that is caused by a copper deficiency, but how could they not have enough copper! The goat chow has 39...

she is so cute!!! she looks exactly like mine did as a baby!!!

My goat was coughing a lot, I gave her some of Molly's goat wormer formula 1 and she stopped coughing! I guess she had lung worm or something.

Thanks for posting this! my doe is also very friendly and loves to be brushed and rubbed until I touch her udder or tail, then she flips out!! I really hope that after she kids she will let me touch her.

I agree, your parents might want you to focus on school or something else. I want bees but both of my parents said no, however my father said yes to chickens and my mother said yes to goats, so I am very happy to give up on bees. Count your blessings not your curses and in the end you will be...

I'll see if I can take her temps, she hates to be touched so it might be tricky. She is acting normal, eating, drinking, running, escaping and is even being friendly to my other goat! It wasn't gloppy just kind of like this doe in the "losing the plug" picture although more clear than that...

She was bred 2.5 months ago and has a ton of white discharge almost a steady stream, and for 3 days now! for the first day it was pretty steady and now the is almost nothing. Is it normal? if not what is wrong?

I had a similar experience, I bought 2 Nigis, one of them it turned out had mastitis did not produce milk in one teat and the other is doing pretty well. I sold the first one to a friend for $60 because he has a lot of land and she will be treated nicely for eating weeds. I really needed another...

the buck that my horned goat was bred to has a polled gene (1 of his 4 kids is polled), I wonder is her kids will be polled.

I love both!

I have read that you can tell by the hair growth on the top of the head, if they are polled then the hair doesn't grow circular to make room for horns.
