Ok this is what U have. I rescued a boer goat from a back yard and bought her home to 14acres. Had her there for around 6 weeks and had her in the house yard during the day and locked her up in an oversized chicken coop at night. Then she started to become naughty and started jumping up and banging on the glass doors to come in side with us, the dogs did why shouldn't she?
I then contacted a breeder and we defused for her to take "Prim" to her farm with her 20 odd pet goats to try to teach her how to be a goat! Prim is approx 6 months old.
Anyway, l got her back about 3 weeks ago with another goat who is a cross Maleen x Swiss (hope that is the correct spelling). Then last Saturday I bought another 5 goats back. 2 mums with there babies. twins and one. All Dairy goats.
Now Prim seems so sad. Is that possible? She eats little and seems to get bullied. This afternoon at feed time she got knocked o her side and then got up and walked away and stayed by her self. The kids and I go out of our way to make her feel like the favourite.
Any suggestions?
I don't believe she is sick, I think she is depressed. What do you think?
