Once you have purchased your first goat/goats one of the first things to think about is what to do if your goat is not well. It is important to have found a compassionate vet who is interested in goats before illness strikes. A copy of a goat health book will become invaluable. Pat Coleby's Natural Goat Care is excellent The normal body temperature of a goat is 39.5 degrees so it pays to have a thermometer is your first aid kit. The average life span for a doe is 8 years and a buck is 6 years, of course, many goats are not average at all! We would like to have a list of vets specialising in goat care on this page - please email us if you would like to be listed Email us if you know of any other health books which would make good reading |
