    Pushy Goat!

    Hi, My 16 mth old wether (who is the sweetest goat on earth to me, at least... but not to his sisters!!) has begun pushing me. He has always rubbed his head on me, and his pushed a little now and then- however, in the last few months he has taken to really pushing hard. While not a full on...

    Apple Cider Vinegar

    I put it in their water a few times a week. Heard it is good for several things, maybe even urinary issues in wethers.

    HEAT? Again?

    I have two 9 month old nubian/lamancha x does. They went into heat about a month ago for the first time, tail wagging, bleating and some discharge for a few days. Seems the one is at it again, can that be and how often can I expect this? Thanks!

    Goat Rolling her neck around - just playing?

    Mine do this too- well the does anyway and one more than the other. I think she is being silly although the phantom horn theory sounds plausible. When she does it, she reminds me of being little and hanging upside down on the swing set. maybe they are having fun?

    Daylight saving ending this weekend

    When I put our goats in at sunset- that's feeding time. I fill up the hay baskets, give them some grain and fresh water. They eat it all by morning. I don't leave any lights on in the pen but I do have a goat cam, to spy on them and during the night if I wake up I can see them, sleeping, chewing...

    Anyone have experience with Chaffhaye Alfalfa ?

    Hi- since I asked the question a while back, I have gotten a few bags and the kids seem to like it just fine. At first, they weren't so sure but I started giving it to them in the morning, in lieu of alfalfa. The smell reminds me of sauerkraut :P We've gone through one bag and plan on getting...

    Why is my wether humping?

    My wether (6mths old) humps his one sister all the time and she in turn humps her sister! (they are triplets) Seems like more of a dominance thing rather than horny! :-)

    Screaming...

    I think they love you and want attention! When we brought our three home (at 8 weeks) they bleated a lot! Once I'd go out and sit with them while they browsed, quiet as church mice... then they got more confident and happily spent the day outside- if they saw or heard me, or anyone else for that...

    What plants are toxic for goats?

    Your State Extension office might have a list of poisonous plants in your area. I took pictures and sent them in to mine and they helped me identify some plants I wasn't sure of. Here's a link to a helpful list from Fias Co Farm- http://fiascofarm.com/goats/poisonousplants.htm

    Coughing Goats

    I am experiencing this too- we're in Colorado, pine pollen is really bad here right now. They are fine, except for coughing once and a while, thinking it's allergies or reaction to some environmental cause. No mucus, no fever. They are playing, happy, eating great, shiny coats, bright eyes and...
