Hi there,
One of my pygmy wethers has mites, which I have just treated with ivermectin pour-on. Unfortunately his scratching has made an area around his bottom red-raw and it is starting to bleed - I have watched him repeatedly scratching it with his teeth.
Has anyone tried a cone/Elizabethan collar on their goat, to stop the scratching? I know it won't stop him rubbing his back end on things, but I think it's his teeth that are doing the real damage at the moment.
Thanks!
RJ
