I haven't had goats for long, have found them to be very entertaining.
Mine have kidded this year (a first for me).. One of the girls had trouble feeding her twins
the vet came out and she gave her antibiotics & painkillers, as we milked her from her good teat to feed the little ones and
the nanny started to help herself to a drink from her own teat
The vet had never seen this before
we both were laughing...Anyhow I now top up one of the twins 4 times a day, the goat in question pushed her baby aside when she had stopped drinking and started guzzling out of the bottle !!
Same thing has happened today...Has anyone experienced this...Mum has plenty of good food, hay and fresh water and is 4/5 years old, the twins have grown amazingly quick along with the other two sets of twins next to her so there's no concern there......I'm just curious about this obvious milk loving goat....Any ideas
