    I have an 8 month old Nubian doe who I noticed was acting different yesterday. She wasn't chowing down on food, or really wanting to be in the pasture. She still wanted the herd around though. I checked her FAMACHA it was about a 4-5. I dewormed her with Cydectin Oral French and gave her Jump...

    I have a month old bottle baby. He has been on the bottle since about 2 days old and takes a little but not much. The others are taking 12-16 oz and he's barely taking 4 oz. Is there a way to get him to start eating? If he was an adult, I'd give him a vitamin B shot but is that ok for kids?

    I'm placing my bet on Urinary Calculi. He's a 2 year old Nubian buck, very sweet, has never used his horns on anyone, etc. He's also very healthy, but yesterday I caught him shaking profoundly, he had quite a bit of diarrhea as well, and I haven't seen him urinate at all. He's been in his stall...

    Hello! My husband and I are new pygmy owners. My newest kid hasn't eaten since Monday night and I'm a little concerned. She seems a little bloated to me, but I may be being paranoid. She's acting normal for the most part, maybe a little more sleepy than she has been up to this point. She ate...

    I finally obtained the new Nubian doe so many on this site advised me on last week. She's CAE negative and has been recently wormed. She's safely installed in her new quarantine pen and shed at our farm, she's quickly acclimated to our LGDs, and we've conquered a few other fear issues. All in...
