Pregnant goat with dandruff.

First thing I do is feed a mix of Flax seed,, wheat germ and coconut oil to make a paste of sorts. Feed a teaspoon or so 2 times a day until skin flakes stop. When it's more than just dry skin,, Zinc would be my first go to. Of course if it's been 4 months or longer since getting copper, I do both.

A good brushing will also help losen the flakes, some goats really love it! Especially at the withers and the rump!

I do brush her, but I noticed she's getting more and more of it.

Did you look for lice?

I'm going to look again but I'm not sure what lice look like on goats.

Goat lice are tiny grayish often with red heads.

I just looked. She doesn't have lice and the other goats aren't having any skin problems. I noticed she is itching.

Dry skin can be itchy too. Try the blend I mentioned and see if the are any improvements after a week or so.

I agree.
