The goats that I buy are vaccinated and from one show herd that I trust. Your situation may be very different than mine and require vaccination. Sorry I am of no help.

I have been reading a lot about goat diseases and vaccinations for them. Do you get your goats vaccinated?Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09174282481009758903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333453357436791411.post-36731799532348700062017-07-06T05:26:09.800-06:002017-07-06T05:26:09.800-06:00I am so glad you are learning a great deal.

We do not have enough land plus the snow becomes really deep in the winter, a long winter. In the future our hope is to work out some deals with the neighbors who are city folks living in the country to use their unused pasture. First we need to buy some portable electric fence. Unfortunately,we are still fencing human food plots,and dividing our pasture so money for that is not available yet. Meanwhile, we have purchased the correct kind of halters to tether our cattle and the goats of course can use dog collars.<br />Since no one in our area has dairy animals, I figure we might make a deal with the ranches that border us<br />on cutting some hay for the winter from their hay fields. There is our plan for varying situations.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15845252729189467819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333453357436791411.post-38884917306284847342017-07-05T13:36:13.061-06:002017-07-05T13:36:13.061-06:00We are in the processing of learning about goats t...We are in the processing of learning about goats to add them to our little corner of the world. I have learned so much from your blog. Have you considered how and what you would feed the goats if, as they say, the end of the world hits?
