Oct. 16, 2007 - Poor Goat

One of our goats seems to be under the weather. She is extremely thin, all the other goats are nice and plump. She eats only a little at a time, the other goats eat like...pigs. She gets shunned out of the barn, the other goats are nice and cozy.

We have pulled her out of the herd and she is hanging with the chickens. My dd made a coat type thing for her, because it is getting cold up her and as I mentioned she is skinny. We have been feeding her pretty much by hand. She loves: Corn flakes; Oatmeal; Tortillas; and once in awhile she eats....goat food. She only takes the food in small portions and in all honesty I think her teeth may be wearing down.

I called the vets office today to see if I could drop a sample of her...poop off to them. We did deworm all the goats about 4 weeks ago, but if she has another kind of worm it might show up under the microscope. In the mean time she's bedded down in the coop with her homemade blankie for the night. I really hope and pray that in the morning she is doing better.

I am a 40 year old homeschooling mom of 4 great children and a wife to a wonderful husband of 18 years. We live in northern NH and we have what I call a mini farm. I love the Lord with all my heart, and I hope that this spot in cyberspace reflects that love. I hope that you enjoy reading about us and I would love to hear from you and learn about your family too.
