Did you see anything in my kit you are going to be picking up soon? Do you have anything in your kit *I* don't have? Let's chat!

[@CalSextons]

Great content thanks. We just received our little Nigerian Dwarfs Thursday, and are having an absolute blast with them. I’d say they have my daughter and I very well trained already. Lol. Prior to getting my baby wether and my daughter her little girl, we collected, read, and took many notes. Even with all that, your notes will definitely be going into our little goat binder. Thanks, and look forward to more goat related videos. 👍🏼

[@TheNamelessHomestead]

So glad I could be of help 🥰 congrats on your new babies!

[@ruthsolter1077]

Great information. Thank you.

[@TheNamelessHomestead]

So glad you enjoyed it Ruth ❤ thank you for the feedback I appreciate it

[@tiffanystevens5313]

Jump start, probiotics, wound care and mastitis test strips are also great to have on hand 😊

[@Starry_Night_Homestead]

Thank you! This is extremely helpful! We are trying to build an emergency kit for our goats.

[@TheNamelessHomestead]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lizpurvis2386]

Thanks for info

[@brealenehagen2277]

So, I have been binge watching your videos today and I just love them. I have been slowly building up a homestead last few years. As much as I want a few goats, the medical problems that come with them have made me stay away from that. I'm determined to get some either next spring or 2022. This video, is the best I have seen with explanation and going through all/most of what you need for your goat herd. Thank you for that! I honestly think, if you have the time, to do a series where every episode goes through 1-3 different medications in greater detail. Show pics/clips of signs to look out for, when you need to and how to correctly administer meds. Thank you so much, and you have a great night!

So glad you have enjoyed them! Thanks for the video ideas I am always happy to be given requests especially if it helps people ❤

I highly suggest 18g for Pen. The 20g can be too small and you end up with more of the carrier and less of the actual antibiotic in it

[@TheNamelessHomestead]

Interesting I have never had that issue with Pen but everyone has their own preference when it comes to needles for sure. I have a friend who uses 1.5" 18g for everything they are just her fave.

[@RebekahKowalski]

This is awesome. No goats yet, so this helps me with planning for potentially getting them (brush eaters, not dairy).

[@TheNamelessHomestead]

I am glad you found it helpful thank you for commenting feedback means a lot ❤

[@LL-ps2hc]

I like goat

[@sarajeesers1128]

Is Ammonia Chloride toxic? Can I take it for my kidneys and bladder too?

[@mikemichaels1875]

How do you give the Ammonium Chloride and what dose?
