Hi Everyone, I'd be curious to know whether or not anyone else has had some trouble with their does leaking out portions of milk at night. Both my Oberhasli...
Hi! I have never had problems with any leaking. Are you positive that it's a leaking that's occuring? The problem I have had has been milk thiefs .... I have...
Hehe, no...This is definitely, I believe, actual leakage. I have found little puddles of milk on the floor sometimes where the doe has laid down. Kind of...
It is a weak spinster<sp?> muscle it will be passed down to her off spring. We have one doe who we can not bag up for a show as she leaks- but not to bad. Liz...
Not all that uncommon--usually the does with the larger orifices. An oldtimer told me that a bit of alum water worked as a teat dip--JUST the very tip......I...
Just curious- I let my babies nurse their moms- how would the alum water or even Fight Bac product affect this? Thanks, Joanna ... From: Mary Kellogg...

I have an Oberhasli doe under which I would find a puddle where she had been lying down also. This only happened when she was producing more milk than now and...
Yes Em, I had this happen with one of my does too - it was weird! I fretted about it for a while and then stopped when it seemed it was nothing to worry about....
I have two does that will actually give a couple of squirts of milk from an extra pore or two on thier teats when handmilking. I don't notice it when machine...
I have a Togg that does this, and it did not show up til 2nd lactation. --first time I have seen this in 39 years of dairy goats--not sure if it is heritable,...
Alum will pucker you up! Bet it would tend to wean those babies! Not sure about Fight Bac ingredients..... Sincerely Mary Kellogg Share your wings with...
Hi, Does anyone know of a method of training problem scurs to grow away from the skull instead of growing into it? Just looking for an alternative to a...
Hi, I have been reading about using bands to dehorn. Might that work? Sure seems easier to me than burning them off or cutting them off. I know you have to get...
You can just keep them clipped back, but I'm pretty sure you can't change how they grow. ... From: Joanna Porter To: raw_goatmilk@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday,...
ok, thanks. Yeah...We were clipping, but that's getting traumatic as it eventually opened up the sinus some. Also, as for banding- I'm not a huge fan. I did...
Hi Joanna, I am becoming an expert at banding for both scurs and horns. This is not to brag but actually an embarassment. I learned to band out of a necessity ...
Awesome, thanks guys!! Maybe I will try that. Do horns ever grow back after banding? I always ended up cutting off the bands if they let me know (loudly)...
We are new at goats and have a goat with a scur. The seller told us it just breaks off every so often and didn't seem concerned. It is not pressing into the...
How old of kids do you mean? I did not get one doe kid disbudded as she had an eye infection and I did not think she would be ok. She regained normal sight...

Dawn...I know there are mixed thoughts on dehorning or not....I've actually got mixed thoughts about it myself. I have Nubians, and just this past year bought...
