Hello all! So I have this goat who has had a lump on her udder, half-dollar size. I have been keeping an eye on it and it felt a lot like scar tissue, hard, could shift it with my fingers, its been there for a while. Well, tonight it popped open. So I of course gave it a squeeze as it had some puss like goo coming from it. It exploded this thick, glue like puss. I got as much out as I could, flushed it with warm water/betadine solution mixture, sprayed with vetricyn, gave her a dose of banamine and LA200. You can now feel a hard base to it, and theres 2 holes, pencil eraser size side by side. I literally felt this lump last night and told myself it was nothing to worry about (I will take "what else am I wrong about for $600, Alex"), its been there since I got her back almost 2 months ago (to those who have seen my other posts, yes she is the other CAE Sanctuary goat returned to me). I do have pictures of what came out of it and what it looks like now. She was NOT happy with me, so the picture of the abcess is not THAT great. I am going to call my vet tomorrow to see what they think it is and try to get her in to be seen. Everything else about her is normal "Winter" stuff. Feisty, eating great, feisty, spunky, feisty...SPOILED...
