IMHO, regardless of the cause this doe should be culled and her kids not used for breeding. Tom

thank/s for advice goat man she/s going to the sale barn wed.what kind of wormer do you use?

I had one do this on her first time, but on her second one she had so much milk her twins nursed and I still got over a quart when I milked her.

Although some think it is worth the second chance like me, there are also benefits of not waiting, what if she doesn't have milk again the next time? All that time and effort would have been wasted.

Questions to consider are
Was this her first kidding?
If she is younger than a year and a half you could butcher her and enjoy the wonderful meat?
you could take her to the sale barn and let some one else worry about her milk production for her kids?

We use ivomec. My wife knows the schedule but I don't. I don't think we do it more than 3 times/yr. We have their stool checked at least once a season. We have a friend who uses an herbal wormer and her testings showed no intestinal parasites, the stuff worked. But her heard ended up with lung flukes which the herbal didn't control. Tom

we was told by someone to top dress our feed with a teaspoon of garlic and a 1/8 teaspoon of ginger per goat for parisites it might work in texas but it dont work in tennessee LOL wasted money.we use ivomec also and cydection after loseing 2 high dollor goats.

I use the herbal goat wormer from Hoegger Goat supply
you have to give it to them once a week, but you put it in their feed. We live in Arkansas and it seems to worked fine. Of course I no longer have goats as of yesteday. But I would still recommend it. A 2 lb bag cost around 30.00 but it lasted for 8 months for 12 goats.

There's tons of info on herbal wormers at fiasco farm website (google it). Great product. But I'm in New Mexico where worms probably aren't the same kind of problem as in, say, Tennessee or Arkansas (we're too dry, or at least most years we are... this summer we're soaked).
