Description

Hi friends!  Today we’re talking about what to watch for once you’ve gotten your baby goats through that first critical week.  We’re talking about the most common problems we see in the first month after goat kids are born, what to watch for, and what to do.  I’m also sharing about a big loss we had this year, what we learned from it, and I’m reminding myself that it’s only a failure if you don’t learn something.  Listen in and learn how to keep those goat kids healthy until they’re ready to wean.  Let’s get to it!


 


All the Best!


Millie
