OK I have two questions for you guys...
1. could you link me up to some bulk seaweed powder? I've been told 'ebay' but there's too much there, I've no idea which type is better (kelp? bladderwrack? stuff for dogs?) - I'd like to get a decent amount rather than pay through the nose for tiny bags. I had a bag from GN but it was tiny and lasted 5 minutes.
2. What do I do about a hole in my goat's hoof? (This is my goat who has struggled with a high worm burden for months. Her yield went down, she strted loking really thin and a bit unkempt. Many FECs and conversations with the vet. She had Tramozole (did nothing), Panomec (improved the count only slightly and has now stopped me being able to drink the milk) and now we are trying Eprecis. I have copper bolused her with 4g, she gets Caprivite and Red Rockies lick. But I think all this has had an effect on her hoof health.)
So she got a small stone chipping stuck between her sole and hoof wall. It got infected, she's had blue spray and Alamycin LA and it's fine now, but there's a hole where the stone was, which just fills with dirt and occasionally gets more stones stuck in it. Do I just lkeave it and hope it reduces over time? Or is there anything I can pack it with? Tried packing it with copper sulfate but it just comes out. (hole is between hoof wall and sole - no hole in the hoof wall). This poor goat has been through the mill! You wouldn't know it though as she is still bright, curious, naughty, greedy and loving
Anyway any advice / expereince to share greatly appreciated.
