this product is not intended for food producing animals.
what kind of parasites your goats need to be treated for?

hi, my goats are nigerian dwarf goats and I am not milking anyone at the moment, nor usuing them for food. Of course it is saturday and i havent gotten their fecals back yet. i was told this stuff was really good, being that many years back the worms developed a immunity to it and everyone quit usuing it for years. Now since no one has used it it is working really well. But I just wanted to know if it is safe for pregnant goats, or if there were any problems with it. i am not going to worm till i get my fecal results back.

i think it would be a good idea to wait and see what you are dealing with. i have no idea if this wormer is also effective for barber pole worm or other comon parasites found in goats. ask your vet
