Baby goat with funny poo

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Dairygoats : One Thread

Hi Everyone, I have a Nigerian Doe that was born In January of this year, she is weaned and eats hay, nibbles grain, and drinks plenty of water. She has had all her vaccinations, BO-Se and CD&T. Her poop is funny looking every couple of days. It looks more like cat or dog poo, than goats. She will poo this way for a day or two and then her poop will be normal berries. This has been going on for about one month. What could be causing this? She is acting fine, not sick. Oh she has had Cocci treatment also, and due for next treatment coming this week. She is spoiled and runs loose in my barn and does eat alot of chafe, could it be she needs to be penned and get more roughage? Any suggestions, she is my baby and I do not want her to get sick Please help

Are you sure you aren't doing something to her every 3 days? Like treats, or filling up a feeder with something, filling up the chafe (what is that by the way :), letting the hay feeder run out, putting something in the water? Letting her out to eat all the pretty clover we have right now? Dog food, cat food, anything? Vicki

yes, this is a serious problem, i types vicki eats poo into google seach engine and i come up with this serious, and disturbing matter. Maybe this animal is really a dog or a cat in disguise? Have you furthered your investigation to this level? Please reply to me as i am deeply concerned and this may lead to many sleepless or restless nights.

Regards
