omgosh, yall must think i have some sickly animals and a dirty place cause suddenly i am posting all over about issues with all my animals! i have had such good luck with all my animals for years and all of a sudden i am having issue after issue.
i try my best to learn as much as possible and i take good care of them all and im just having a real wave of bad luck around here i guess.
i was taking pics of my doe because i wanted to post them and ask about her itchiness and her hair shedding out. i was seperating her hair to take pics and thats when i saw the creepy crawlies
im horrified!! how did she get mites?! she goes out in the yard with my calf and my ewe, but shes not friendly with them and they dont have real close contact. also she has her own stall cause she likes her space. so how do i treat mites on a pygmyX doe? and should i treat my calf and ewe (who dont show any symptoms so far)
i have recently been treating two dogs for mange, and i was affraid it was going to spread like wildfire thru all my animals because they all have some contact with eachother. as far as i know you cant see mange, so this must just be a seperate issue. i dont have a clue where she got mites, and is this also going to spread to the other animals?
thanks!
