What does CL stand for? I will gladly google it when I find out what it stands for so I can figure out what causes it, how to vaccinate, syptoms, treatment, etc.
Thank you so much, I hope it turns out that way for me as well.neener92 said:I'm praying for your little girl. My pet hair lamb got a lump, I was scared to death it was CL. La 200 for a few days cleared it up. Turned out to not be CL....I'm hoping it turns out that way for you!

That's the other site that I looked at, and she has the lump down on her neck, that's why I am asking. It's kinda the end of the world for me. If she has it, I will have to get rid of her. I have done a lot of research on it, and that is why I know I would have to find her another home. The reason why I am asking about the location and the hair loss is because I have read about hair loss and location and it's NOT in the location where it is in the diagrams, and she hasn't lost her hair. Trust me, I have looked at many different web sites, have talked to goat lovers, and my vet about CL. I have done my research.SuburbanFarmChic said:Fingers are crossed for you. It's a tough situation but ultimately it's not the end of the world. Use it to learn about Caseous lymphadenitis and how it expresses it self, what to look for, how to handle it, etc. They don't lose the hair until they are closer to popping in my understanding. Rolls could probably give you more info on that though since she has been managing for it for a while now I think.

This site has a diagram of likely spots for it to show up.
