if you can get them to swallow it, food grade DE helps with intestinal yickies,
ive been using it on the dogs and cats for years because i hate chemical wormers, when i got ruby she had hook, round and tape...i dosed her with a teaspoon a day for 5 days and we got a negative fecal at the end of the one week, since then i dose all of them, dogs and cats every 3 months with a teaspoon a day for 3 days) and ive not had a fecal come back positive since..., im not sure what the dosage would be for deworming goats, but it works well on the dogs and might be good to try if you can get it in them lol.
i also know intestinal parisites dont like brewers yeast.

We had 'em both here too a few months back when Donkey was in to see them. We're probably due for retesting. They never mentioned it at the time. I'll call soon. Daisy and Thomas are a breeze to medicate. Donkey is a bear.

Nice awning! We did that for the chicken coop and it's been great fro a dry space up until all of our torrential rain this season.

The awning is awesome! And the calves are so big now!!
I didn't think "her" calves were that big, just needed shaved, or maybe a weed eater :lol:

Hee hee hee hee.......



Here's some soap I made the other day. Sage and Cinnamon logs and the other bars are a Poison Ivy bar. I've had jewel weed soaking in olive oil since September so I used that olive oil and at trace added the jewel weed, mashed oatmeal and some calamine.

It's really sad to say that I'm actually looking forward to getting poison ivy just so I can try this stuff out....on my arms though ;)
