[@joegraybill4492]

I dealt with this last year for the first time. Thanks for the informational video.👍

[@joshlewis1492]

I am looking baby goats or 3 to 4 my nths old goats. I am in North Georgia. Please let me know what you have

[@rollingofarm]

Thanks for checking with me. I don’t have any babies right now, but I can try to send you some photos of 3-4 month old goats. Please send me a text with your request to 256-668-3014. Thanks.

I have heard that colloidal silver is affective for pink eye. I know it has anti bacterial properties.

[@Blue1Sapphire]

Yes . .I make it myself using pure silver rods. . . 2 by 2mm x 7in long in a glass jar of distilled water. Attach each rod using alligator clips to a car battery or 3 x 9v battery. One to positive & one to negative. Keep the rods apart. Ions are then released via the electrolysis process. Wait 1 hr or until the water has a slight metal colour to it or taste test the water.. . Has that colloidal silver taste to it. I use it on any infection. . .seems to work. Best to catch the infection early if u can.

Thank you Sir for such an informative video on pink eye. I have a few sheep going through it now. You have relieved a lot of my concerns with the flock. Keep doing what you're doing on youtube.

Thanks for all you post

[@ndetojb2122]

i have been applying my goat the powder form medicine for a period of 1 week and the pink eye dissapears but after i stop applying it it starts coming up again.what could be the problem.

[@rollingofarm]

I’m not sure. If it was a bacterial infection, maybe it just was not completely gone.

[@laszlopocsai1139]

Thank you & Happy farming you too!

Fresh milk usually has just enough antibodies to fix pink eye. I’ve never used it with goats yet but it would be my first go to. A tiny bottle of fresh goats milk could be kept in the fridge in a dropper bottle. It’s an unusual remedy, but free. I would refill with fresh milk ever 3 days at least. I’m not sure how feisty a goats pink eye could get though.

[@rollingofarm]

That is interesting! Thanks for sharing.

[@gracieliv5462]

I'm not too knowledgeable about sheep, terms, and diseases yet, but my five-week old bottle-baby came down with pink eye last night. I'd like to try the milk method you described, but I have questions. 1. Can store-bought cow milk be used? 2. Do you apply the milk to the eyeball, or would you just feed it to them?

[@inacige]

Can u please write the prescription you did treat the animals

[@rollingofarm]

For pinkeye I do not treat with anything. If it is viral (which it usually is), it just has to run its course. Takes 2-5 weeks for it to clear up.

[@ravenbrown74]

How could a new born baby goat get this

[@rollingofarm]

It is possible.

[@5555walid]

Very nice

[@bobbihightower3570]

One treament has always worked for my animals. 1/2 to 1 cc of antibiotic injected in to the third eye lid and a few drops on the eye ball. I use this in both cattle and goats

[@jorgealvarado8131]

I just recently purchased boer goats. When I picked them up they were nice & healthy, lived in a low cut field. I brought them to my field where the field is tall and plenty of brush to eat. Two days after having them I noticed bugery cloudy semi shut eyes. I figured change of field might have caused irritation maybe wind picked up and they got something in there eyes. Should I let it run it's course and hopefully they'll recover if not what do you recommend?

[@rollingofarm]

It is possible it is from irrigation from foreign debris, but my guess it is viral pinkeye caused by the stress of the move. I would also guess that is will run its course. If mild, a few days, if it develops into a severe case, 4-5 weeks. I don’t know much that is really effective in treating it if viral.

[@jorgealvarado8131]

@@rollingofarm I appreciate the quick response! Right now they're eating/drinking fine. I clean they're bugery eyes with a damp towel just to keep it clean. I also found a natural remedy to work as an immune booster and giving it to them as well. I'm just worried because few are pregnant

[@jaredbridges2964]

So it will jus clear up

[@jaredbridges2964]

Because my Billy goat has pinkeye

[@rollingofarm]

Believe it or not, it does.
