Overrun with beasties
I have a wether goat, approximately one and a half years old, who has a limp.
I'm fairly sure that it was caused by him getting a back leg caught up in a fence when he was quite young, but it has been slowly getting worse.
Here's a video of him a couple of months ago
but since then it has got a quite a bit worse, to the point where I think he's loosing a bit of weight from not wanting to walk.
Sometimes he just goes around on his knees
Is there anything I can do here? I can't notice anything when I feel the leg, there's nothing to see.
I'm starting to wonder if it would be kinder to cull him.
Thanks for any help!
