    Goat - burst something on forehead

    We found this on our dwarf goat Louise this afternoon. It appears to be a bubble of some kind that burst next to a scur. She didn't even seem to notice it and was eating as usual. We handle her twice a day so this was very strange. Louise is 12 or 13 years old now and has never had any...

    Raised platform for goats - suggestions?

    I'm looking for a raised platform for my goats to hang out / sun themselves. I was thinking a kids' playset but can't seem to find what I'm looking for without attachments. Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't even know what to search for online.

    Back after a few years.

    I haven't been around for a few years and had to create a new account. After 15 years of raising different breeds, I landed on RIRs! I just like their temperament, consistent laying and personalities. We currently have 18 birds. Seven are older so we raised a dozen from a pullet order in the...
