Hi, I only have two Pygmy goats aged nearly 18mon the now, they have had Clostridium and tetanus by vet when I got them aged 6 months, last vaccination was May 21,
vet said some owner vaccinate 3/4 times a year, but I dont like thought of over medicating my goats.
how often should I give a booster ? Thank you love from UK Donna

The first year they should get a shot and then a booster shot 3-4 weeks later. After that once a year.
