Thanks for the responses! I put in a "litter box" and moved her nesting box and she has stopped pottying in the nesting box! Hopefully she kindles soon!
I got a spiral ham from a friend who had his pigs butchered. Am having a hard time finding a recipe for a fresh ham, most are pre cooked bought from the store.
hello everyone. I have a doe we bred and waited and no kits, bred again no kits. We then bred her every Monday for a month, not even thinking how difficult it would be to plan for kits. She started pulling hair Saturday so I carefully pulled the hay and pulled hair out and put it in a nesting...
Have any of you ever had a doe mount the buck right after he's bred her? Picked up a new doe who willingly lifted for the buck, he bred her now she's "goin to town" on him. My other doe never did this.
I posted this on backyardchickens as well but figured I could get help here too. We were slaughtering our first batch of roosters and found bugs. Lice? Recommended treatment?

I had no idea what a burdizzo was but after reading about it am thinking maybe he had that method of casteration done as his testicles are much smaller than the other. I will get photos of both of them tonight. I believe they are both about a year old.
Silly Question but...

I am pet sitting and was told he had a doe, buck, and whether but both boys clearly have large testicles!

Hello Everyone,
We are new to goats this year and I am interested in breeding my two Kiko Does. I found a Kiko stud about 45minutes from my house. The stud owner has asked me when I am looking to expose them.
What should I expect to pay, how should things go, and when should I bring them to...
Hello all,
my neighbors decided to bring over fresh step crystal cat litter buckets full of water to our goats without our permission. The goats already had water but my assumption is that cause we are weaning the babies they are making extra noise and the neighbors thought they were helping. I...
thankyou everyone! :) I have no idea who the father is, we got both of them from someone who didn't realize how much work they would be to keep out of her garden, she got them when the baby was a few days old and she has no idea what they are. The buckling is very sweet loves my other goats. She...
Hello everyone.
I have toe does in milk, a Kiko named Billi and a Nigerian dwarf named Pumpernickel. Billi is great for milking she stands there and we can get it done super fast. Pumpernickel on the other hand is horrid. She kicks, flails and screams. Any tricks to making this go more smoothly...
