new pygmy, scabby neck and verm-x?!!
« on: June 27, 2010, 03:24:33 pm »
My son's new pet pygmy goat is settling in very nicely and having good fun with his pet lamb 'brothers'!!  He has been with us for just over a week now and we are able to hold him and pet him.  I have noticed that he has quite scabby skin under his hair on the back of his neck.  Any ideas what this would be and what to do about it?  Advice greatly appreciated!  Also wondered if anyone had any experience of using the vermx for worming goats?  I see that there is one that can be used for goats and sheep?!  Will post on the sheep section too!  Many thank yous!  ;D
