thanx, i think i wil go shopping, the wether is quite tiny so shouldnt be a problem finding him one. they have plenty hay, and eat like theres no tomorrow.

infact the little wether needs to put weight on. hes on ablib hay, calf nuts and sheep crunch but has a tendancy for his belly to blow up. i put soya oil in his feed sometimes but i dont think he enjoys it.
hes bin wormed and had a couple of vitamin jab. any tips to fatten him up?

Check the label on your calf nuts!!! some contain dried milk powder, I use sheep nuts, goats are closer to sheep than calves.
