Good. I am always in a panic mode when something is not quite right with my girls, and having lost a lamb on Xmas day to suspected pneumonia (despite vaccination cover) am quite paranoid now...

You can vaccinate with Ovipast with the usual initial double dose so that th second dose is about here weeks before her due date. That's what I did originally with my lot, only thing the vet was concerned about was not to stress them (as stress is one of the main factors of pasteurella pneumonia). But if your goats are used to you then that is not a problem.

Hi all. Thanks for asking Anke. She seems better today, still happy to gobble her food and up and about.

I'm beginning to think I was worrying over nothing! How embarrassing..... just a bad cold. On the plus side I'm now thinking she is a bit of a fatty and I will adjust her food accordingly.

It's always best to ask, you'd feel a bit sickened if you'd waited and things got worse, besides, I for one am keen to learn from other people's posts
