just been having a good read in the pigs, sheep and goat sections,
and picked up a few good tips… i have been reading other books too

but from a newbies point…it would be great to compile a list of the best basic animal meds to keep on site, especially for the 3 listed above,

so can we start a list…on whats recommended to have on site…

sheep

goats

pigs

1. Purple foot / sanitising spray.
2. Penicillin.

That's a start!

Proper drenching syringe (or even gun) for the sheep and goats (no idea about pigs!)  makes life easier than trying to use a tonic water bottle with improvised lid in an emergency 

Ground ginger for bloated lambs etc

H10 (horses) cream for treating mudfever on goats legs.

Rope harness to keep the animal still (sheep)

Packet of jacobs crackers to lure them in for treatment if they aren't too poorly and still able to try to leg it.

and that tar stuff in a yellow bottle (someone help me out here?!) great for wounds

Skin Stapler.

Needle and Thread.

Scissors.

Plastic / Latex Gloves.

Some kind of pain killer / anti inflam (i.e Metacam).

This is a full and comprehensive list (and what I have in my own kit pretty much) 
But I'd add that cornflour works in the same way as wound powder (and is handy in an emergency when you don't have any  ) as it stems the blood.
I'd add a can of purple or antibiotic spray - genetian violet or terramycin spray, wouldn't/couldn't be without it and have used it on humans with great success too 
And I'd say that if you are only buying a few weaners to raise for the freezer, providing they've been wormed before you buy them, there's no need to keep needles, syringes or meds on hand - if there should ever be a need you can pick them up fairly quickly from the vet, and if you're only dosing 2 or 3 pigs, it won't cost as much as buying a full bottle

Are your livestock accident prone by any chance?!

[Porterlauren]

Haha to be fair, the medical kit is for the livestock, the dogs . . . . . and me!

Although it's amazing how often a skin stapler comes in handy!
