She is so pretty Kitty! That boy looks like he has something in mind with those markings over his eyes. We have to get together. Life has calmed down here today and we have RAIN! Finally!

Thanks! Lily is pretty thin right now as she is homesick for her herd. She is more concerned with being near me all the time and not with eating. I am separating them at feeding time now as the baby (Dobie cause he looks like a Doberman) was getting all the grain. Lily's milk dried up within a few days so she is getting less grain now and hopefully lots more of the delicious wild blackberry vine that plagues my property.

They are due for worming now. Does anyone have advice on what to use for a 3.5 month old kid?

Thanks!

Kitty

Yes that doe is stunning! Both look happy and well cared for As far as worming...It's best to do a fecal first to see if they have worms and what to treat for and find out what works in your area. For me I use Ivermectin injectable that I give orally at the rate of 1cc per 25 lbs. I buy it by the syringe from the vet so I don't have to buy a whole bottle. Congrats on your goats!
