Ron starts a new kind of chemo today along with radiation.<br /><br />Mary -- We kept our mama goat and baby in separate pen last year but Polly and Cole did so well that we thought Dixie and CC would too. Ron couldn't build me a second pen like he did last year and I was lousy in my efforts. Soon Elizabeth will have her baby or babies and we'll try to separate her and hers from the herd if we can. CC was just doing so well one day as you can see from the little videos I posted, then suddenly down the next.<br /><br />Snaggle Tooth -- Yes,if you can learn anything from goat owners please do. I don't have anyone around her to check with and none of our vets in the area treat goats. I guess that's why goat owners are few and far between around here. I use the internet a lot but pygmy goats seem to have different requirements than other breeds. We've been sailing smoothly with the goats we have for over a year and I guess it was just our turn. Little Cole and strong and healthy so we can be thankful for that.Granny Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-2169107875633671572011-06-06T04:23:07.300-05:002011-06-06T04:23:07.300-05:00Sorry to hear of the CC loss, n strange herd membe...Sorry to hear of the CC loss, n strange herd member attack on him.

It's best to keep very young kids isolated from all except their mothers. A billy will also kill kids. So sorry to hear of your loss.

Nature is beautiful and sad at the same time.<br /><br />Changes in the wind -- The baby goat is gone and it was easier knowing she was with her mama. <br /><br />I was wrong to assume the girls or TK were responsible or to think Dixie rejected her baby. All along it was Polly, a jealous mother getting rid of the competition, I guess. Injury was the only way CC could have gone from a bouncing, running, playing goat to such a sick baby so fast.Granny Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-9321683337435622182011-06-05T08:23:49.887-05:002011-06-05T08:23:49.887-05:00Am glad that she is with her momma until the end. ...Am glad that she is with her momma until the end.

He got on his feet a little and we attempted to reintroduce him to his mother and close the two of them in the hen house. Suddenly the other goats rushed in and Polly (Cole's mother) went straight to CC and hooked her horns under the kid and tossed that frail baby into the air. I am pretty sure that Dixie wasn't rejecting her baby. She was accepting the inevitable loss long before we did. We left them together in the hen house last night and soon we know what we are bound to find. At least CC will be with his mama. When I checked last night Dixie was cuddled as close to CC as she could get.Granny Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-12529436054554676202011-06-04T23:47:54.550-05:002011-06-04T23:47:54.550-05:00Poor CC!
