Hello I'm new to having goats . I was given two goats one of which is loosing hair at a very concerning rate . The people who gave them to me said they treated both goats with a product topically called ivermectin . Seeing that only one is having a issue could it be a allergic reaction or should I be worried.it has lost more hair since this picture

Wow! I'm wondering if its a zinc deficiency - Can you confirm if they have been given any suppliments?

I haven't had to deal with hair loss from zinc but I know it's a common symptom.
I'd give them a human dose every other day for a few days and see if it helps. Repeat in a few weeks if no improvement.
They also need good quality goat minerals, copper bolus, and I really like replamin weekly.
