    We got a Nigerian dwarf back in November. She was pregnant. She screams almost all day. She had her babies a couple of weeks ago and stopped screaming for a few days. Now, she’s back at it. Only when she eats, she stops. They’ve been fed at the same time every day. We were told she was bottle...

    Hi all, my show wether recently seemed to have lost a lot of his appetite for grain a few weeks ago. He’s also lost some weight when he should be gaining (last month he was 71 lbs, now he’s 65–he should be over 80). I had him on 5-6 cups of Sunglo goat feed daily, split evenly between two...
