The two girls have perked up quite a bit, they are up and interested in what's going on, I suspect the tummy ache was making them miserable, at least they are more in the mood to fight now. I took some branches and that got them all eating and I have seen them drinking too, so fingers crossed. I did 1.5 x sheep dose for oramec, overestimated their weight - it's a lot to get them to swallow but got most of it in and will dose again in 10 days.
There is a milk withdrawal period mentioned, is this intended for sheep milk for human consumption? And is the time for goats the same? I'm not selling any milk, it's just for me, gutted to have to buy in again.
I will treat for fluke as well, it's on my list of things to give, just trying to space treatments out so as not to overload them, and make them hate me, although a couple of ginger biscuits got me back in the good books today.
My goats are inside 90% of the time, but I understand I can track things in on my boots, and by other animals (chickens, a wandering lamb, even pigs have got in with them) so it should be quite straight forward to get their stable and yard clear. I've got some fencing improvements to make but then there'll be an area outside they can have to themselves, I'll keep everyone off it for winter, try and clean it up a bit.
I know everyone has these hiccups, and you sometimes have to learn the hard way. I felt helpless on Sunday, but today when the same situation presented itself I was so much better prepared for it, and maybe that has saved my other goats' lives. But I will be furious with myself forever for letting it happen at all.
