Hey there, super new to goats and farm animals in general! This is my ff doe, Alice, who we paired with a Buck in Feb when she was 9 months old. However there was an incident back at the end of December where a buck got loose and spent some time in the doeling pen. We hadn't thought he managed...

I need help i don’t know if my goat gabby (brown) is pregnant, fat, or bloated. Can someone please help me i compared her to my other goat Faye (tan) for reference. Maybe i’m just worrying too much but if you check my profile you can see her earlier this year.

I bought a foal/horse halter for my buck and it’s not working at all, he keeps getting out bc how big the muzzle is on him. If anyone is in the Bay Area californa and have a goat or cow calf halter that fits his measurements please do let me know! But if you’d be okay with shipping I could try...

Before I say anything, Im looking to ONLY give someone a right of TEMPORARY ownership. My male is overwhelmed with hormones and we think it’s best if we turn him out to a herd and let his hormones calm down Or until my doe gives brith Then you have to give him back.:highfive: I’m located in...

I have this buck that won’t stop ramming me, he rammed into my jawbone, knocked me over, skinned my finger, hurt my legs, knocked feed out of my hands, and he always does this when I don’t give him what he wants. I’m considering de-horning him because I was gifted a halter to control him but it...

Hi again, I just wanted to know if the baby I got is pregnant or not, I’ve never had goats before so I wouldn’t know. The male is still trying to mount her

Hello, I am going to be taking home an 8 week old buck from a breeder soon and I was wondering if it would be okay to bottle feed him goat milk supplement to help encourage bonding even if he was been weened off his mothers milk? If this is not a good idea can you help me understand why? I...

we were cleaning out our goats’ hooves when we noticed one of them had been limping. is there something wrong?

It’s spring here in Australia which means anything with fur has decided to blow coat, which includes my two goats. One of my goats is a refined young lady, and elegantly drops her coat without any sort of interference. Her brother, on the other hand, likes to make life difficult by emulating his...
