Facts about Goat Health

Easy way to give medications to goats

The following applies to oral medication and goats that are not so sick that they reject feed.

Goats need medications like dewormer or antibiotics etc. Simply mix it in a little concentrate feed and give to them. Mixing in molasses will make it more palatable. Don't forget to give the correct dossage and feed them separately. This can also work for cattle and sheep.

If they are very sick and could not feed, tube feed them along with the medication. Tube feeding is a process whereby you insert a soft tube (the type used in hospitals) into the stomach via the mouth and throat. There are several youtube videos that demonstrate it. Anyone can do it.
