Hey all
I have 4 pygmy goats that pretty much have free roam of the farm although only stay on the yard area and small paddocks. When they need their feet doing - they hate it with a passion - it takes at least two of us and we literally have to pin them down and get them done as quick as we can as they get very stressed!
I had to get my old girls feet done today, she's the leader of the gang and can be a real bitch!! Really she's had far too much of her own way and is spoilt! Anyway she threw a fit and I ended up catching just below her eye and cutting her, I felt so guilty, obviously I didn't mean to do it but she was thrashing about that much it just happened as I was trying to calm her!
Otherwise they are really good to handle and will wear a halter and are just like dogs really as they also come if you call their name!
I just wondered what everyone else does when feet need trimming?
