Yep, We gave some of ours baths 2 weeks ago, and they look so much better for it. Bath away!

ah geat thanks beth,
i know who is going to be one to not want to play ball-
molly!
when i first washed them (corrected by roxy!!) milly loved it, molly hated it,
but boy does she need it.
i love doing the reall hands on care with them, i fell more bonded with them as a owner if you
know what i mean.
how did the show go?
was saying to roxy earlier that we both noticed (wife) that mollys udder seems to be a little smaller,
so relieved as i was so worried at the beginning.

Langdon - you have my permission to wash your goats now.  If your weather is like ours - its ideal.  They will dry nicely hung out on the line :D
