J.O.Y. Farm

Hoof Trimming. I have a Traveling Goat service coming to trim my Goat's hoofs and to be put on a regular schedule. I am a new owner as I acquired 6 goats this year and have had lots of support from one particular friend who was raised on a farm but I have to now learn on my own. I got a quote of regular trimmings, all 6 for $150. Is this a reasonable price? Any feedback welcome!

I am having a difficult time trying to post, have to invite people and don't know how, can you help me? Chompers Goatscaping in MA. Miss Charleyne

Help- my senior goat had flat tissue-like objects in her milk yesterday, today she passed nothing. Her udder is not hard or hot. Is this an issue?

Hi, I am making my first microscope purchase and have some questions. Are there any pointers you can give me. I posted my questions too:

New to kidding, what should I give my doe after kidding, (ie, vitamins, vaccines, worming.) Any advise would be great. They are boer goats.

Well, our baby arrived last night. She is not suckling from her mother and we have had a vet tube feed her today. Oddly enough, when I got her mother on the stand, she did not sit down, but allowed me to milk her. So, any ideas out there to get this baby suckling on her mother?

Hi. We have a pregnant Nigerian, due next week. We want to milk but every time we get her on the milking stand and get anywhere near her teats or rear end, she sits right down and won't get up. How do we stop this from happening?
