Your goats feet need trimmed. Oh my goodness her teat looks bad. Don't know what it is.

Perhaps sore mouth or Staph? I can't tell from the pic really. I'd clean it with Chlorihexidine twice a day though and see if it improves...

And yes...that poor girl needs those feet trimmed....They can not be comfortable to walk on at all.

Well there is one I've not heard of. Is it similar to warts people get? What causes it?

Wow, that's a new one for me too. I looked at some google images. Gag. Didn't see anything quite similar.

It looks bad to me for sure. How long ago would you say her udder/teat looked normal?
