Suggestions for introducing new goat
Hello. After loosing the other goat, I am finally getting another one. My current goat is finished with all her medication and gaining weight.
I have been to several places looking for a friend. None had goats that I felt comfortable with; too thin, obviously sale barn animals, tiny teets, and wild!
I am going back to where I went for my current goat; where the guy was chatting with me while a baby he was holding was sucking on his ear! I spoke with him earlier and I had the impression he preferred I wait to get another goat from him until she was healthy. I really preferred that also. I am still very upset with myself for her getting sick from the other one.
Anyhow..... Should I do anything with this new one, like yogurt, any meds, or anything, to help boost her immune system from the stress of moving?
Thanks all..
