I got the results back today... All three of those tested does came back positive for CL. The plan is to cull them from the herd.

For anyone reading this thread that doesn't already test, please carefully consider the importance of testing your herd. It's real.

So sorry BWG... that simply sucks. :hugs I hope the infection stops with those you already know about and doesn't spread to the others.

Thanks everyone :hugs

I am going to cry when I have to say goodbye to Latte, I'm sure. :(

I need to draw blood on Monday for the boys and send it in. I have to wait a bit more for the new girls.

Seriously hoping it's not a complete scratch for you. I hope the remainder are clear. Might take a while to verify that for sure...

Thanks LS. I hope the others come back fine too.

I don't think I will be putting anyone in the new house we were making... That project is on hold for now, due to the fact that I used boards from the CL+ pen before knowing those goats had CL. The boys have their houses already if they come back clean, and I will have to fix up the spot Josie and Eliza are in so they can stay there for the Winter.
