    Just to clarify, the reason we don't use straw is because it causes us humans to get itchy and gives me an asthma flareup. I notice the goats cough more with straw as well, and on top of that, it's just not very absorbent, so all the birthing slime slides right off and makes puddles on the floor. Hay isn't a good option because 1) it's expensive and 2) the goats will eat it, which means they are eating hay that has been stepped on/birthed on which means they are exposed to more parasites. Since a doe's immunity is challenged during kidding and parasite loads can easily increase during this time, we don't want to introduce more to her body. Last year we had used pelleted bedding in an effort to find something more absorbent than pine shavings, but when the pellets get wet, it turns to sawdust. It ended up being way more absorbent than we thought and so dusty, getting in the goats eyes and causing more coughing. Looks like pine shavings is the best in the end! Thanks for all your tips over the years -- we really do appreciate it!

      Compressed straw is sooooo much better! Have you tried it? We don’t use anything other than that kind because of my asthma.
      Here in Oregon is great, idk everywhere else.

      That makes since especially if your allergic to it. The dusty straw is like the hay good straw won't be dusty. As always find what works best for you and stick to it. Straw works best for us but we have dirt floors and do deep bedding method

      @leighsummereverhart6455 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      You can try recycled news paper shavings to limit the dust and keep the absorption quality of wood pellets. For extra comfort you can top dress with some shavings. Then to limit dust on cleanup you can also use a watering can to sprinkle water on the top layer. It’s not perfect but helps with the dust for both you and animals (I’m a horse person so have a lot of experience with dust and shavings in stalls lol)

      @@TheHeavenlyHomestead That's a good point maybe ours is different here in AZ, it comes only in bales here or there are bags of it that is shredded down for things like guinea pigs. Either way it's just allergy-triggering tho, so probably not a good idea to try again.

      I have allergies and straw, hay etc causes red eyes, sneezing. So now I use compacted hemp in my chicken coop. If I can’t find it, I will get compacted pine shavings.

    It's adorable that Honey will be delivering in the stall she was born in! If Honey has a doeling, you could name her Junebug, and if she has a buckling, you could name him Beans.

    When horses foal, we don’t use the sawdust either, usually not even the shavings. We typically use straw so we don’t have the same issue, with the chips/dust sticking to babies face a nostrils :)

    Out of the 19 name I suggested, I was rooting the most for 'Crop Circles' (nickname CC). I think Crop Circles would be a cute name for a kid/goat with lots moon spots, but this is coming from someone who doesn't have any goats at all! 😅
