I recently rescued a baby pygmy goat from the mother that wasnt feeding him. Ive bottle fed him to reasonable health using MANNA PRO-KID MILK. He is 13 days old. And I need to know what is a SAFE DELOUSER. And can **HE** eat hay or another food that
You can offer your kid good quality hay at lib and grass. DO not give your kid any other foods (besides the milk replacer, hay and grass. you can also give goat starter. Stick to the instructions on the feed bag. If you think your kid is suffering from lice you can dust it with sulfur powder or use an insecticide such as this: https://www.drugs.com/vet/cylence-pour-on-insecticide.html

My pygmy goat needs a worm dose. What would you recommend and what dosage? Please
Thank you for using Boop by Petco. I don't know what dewormers you have available in Ireland and what types you can buy over the counter. All I can tell you is what we use here in the U.S. and you can try to find it there. I would use Fenbendazole - it goes by many different brand names. You need to get the product and follow dosing instructions on the container. Dosage depends on the concentration and again, I don't know what concentration you have available there. Here is a link to what we use: https://www.jefferspet.com/products/safeguard-dewormer-goats-125ml As always, it is best to consult with your local vet. They will know what worms are most prevalent in your area and what product you should use. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

I have an 8-10 year old, female boer goat that has arthritis in her legs. I was wondering if there was anything I could do to help her or make her feel more comfortable. Would polo wraps or certain supplements help her?
Hello! Lots of animals can benefit from supplements like glucosamine. Your local feed store should be able to point you in the right direction for brands and types available for livestock. Wraps are unlikely to help Bella. If wraps are applied wrongly or too tight you can actually cause more harm than good so I wouldn't recommend it. Keeping her warm in cold weather (like a barn) and lots of straw for padding will also help to keep her warm and comrortable

Hi Dr I have some goats with udder disease, it develops over a period of a year I tried several treatments but nothing has worked. I don't whether it's infectious or not but it appears in white udder only. Please find attached photos of the udder
There are many diseases that can cause something like this. I do not know what common diseases you see in Oman so it is difficult for me to comment. You are better off trying to get a vet to come to your farm and check the goats. We do not have enough information here to be helpful. My best guess is that this is papilloma virus warts. The problem can spread through the herd after purchase of an infected animal. Some self-cure at the end of lactation, some do not regress or will return the next year. A few transform into squamous cell carcinomas (cancer).

hi..i would like to ask how to cure the goats dry hairs..it has more on like dandruff in their skin
Hello there, and thanks for using Boop by Petco! I strongly suggest having Lance and Nana evaluated for skin parasites or other medical conditions before treating them for simple dandruff. Copper deficiency, mites, and fungal infections can cause white flaky skin, and I also noticed in your pictures that one of your goats is missing hair around the eyes, nose, and mouth. This is characteristic of certain kinds of mites. I strongly suggest a vet visit to check them out. If everything comes back clear, consistent brushing can help with flaky dandruff, as well as making sure the goats have enough fats in their diet. Feeding a commercial goat food can help with this. Some goat fanciers also suggest adding black sunflower seeds into the diet, which might increase skin oil production. A good bath can also help! Good luck, and I hope that Nana and Lance are happy, healthy goats!
