Goat poo problem

[barelahh]

Need ideas folks.

The little doe born 2 days ago is going fine. Its just that the poo is orange, and thick and paste like and forms into a ball and dries hard and sticks better than gorilla glue to her butt!

I need to find a way to keep it from sticking like that. Now i just have only 1 to do and i have to clean her up 3 or 4 times a day. i am expecting at least 3 more here soon, and if this happens with them, all i am going to be doing is cleaning up kids.

She's a Angora doe, 2 days old. Nursing fine.

Rub some vaseline in your hands and wipe her rear-end hair and down the back of her rear legs down with it.
Must have been some rich colostrum!
