Exploring the pasture
One of my goats is losing his hair Its coming out in clumps and he has bald patches. The skin looks grayish in color and attached to the ends of clumps of hair looks like dirty dandruff. probably about a month or so ago I bathed him and treated him for lice. And have since been putting a little DE and python powder on him, but just in certain areas (like down his back and some on his testicles). I have only applied it a couple of times and didnt use that much. He has been one that we have really babied since we have had him. He is separated from the rest of my herd, because he is lacking weight and muscle(which we are trying to remedy). i dont really know his history but I am assuming he is still pretty young, possibly under a year. He eats fine (hes a pig actually) but he is very laid back compared to the other goats. He is a really sweet boy. and I really want to do everything I can to get him healthy and running with the rest of the herd. Also I gave him 3ml of safeguard for tapeworms on Sunday night. He is approx 35#. Anybody have any ideas, what could be going on with this goat?
