Top 10 Items I Carry to Work Goats and Sheep

[@dameionkyle3281]

we always brought pink eye dust just in case and antiseptic in a spray bottle in case they had foot rot & a marker to put a line on them when we were finished with them to make sure we didn't do the same one twice, but we were running several hundred head if you only have a few it probably isn't necessary.. glad I found someone on KZbin that someone can actually learn from, most videos on here are junk.

[@rossholmes178]

Greetings from Australia! You really have this sorted...very smooth operation and everything set for one person...most impressive!

[@rollingofarm]

Thank you very much!

[@freedom8921-s6o]

There is always gotta be one "nope, not going where you want"🤣

[@kerrytaggart8206]

Fantastic setup! Enjoyed this.

[@rollingofarm]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@philcooper1055]

As always, love the real world view you give us. Really helps! Your handling system is what I am modeling mine after, with adaptations to my barn arrangement.

[@ethanmiller4277]

Very helpful video like always! I also always carry a pair of linemans or pliers and side cuts! You never know when you will have a goat with is head/horns stuck in the fence somewhere! Lineman’s come in handy a lot.

[@dougm2681]

I like the tin on the gates great simple inexpensive if you have used tin.

[@saralou2.063]

Great video.. I always keep a roll of vet wrap, a small bottle of coppertox, blood stop powder, and a can of screw worm spray. Thanks for all the amazing videos!

[@Jon-ko3vv]

I really thought this was gonna be like fence pliers, crimper, crimping sleeves, come along lol

[@travisholte3241]

Great video keep up the good work

[@leatimothy9858]

Thanks for the info and a great video. Love the shoot set up. I’m north east Alabama.

[@jimbuford4147]

i like something for scours such as specto gard.

[@MB-hc2xw]

Super helpful video! Your setup is impressive, so dialed in to just grab and flip the goats to trim their hooves. Gives me great ideas for something similar, thanks!

[@rollingofarm]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tomklingler3630]

I also carry nuflore for respiratory issues

[@petal9381]

Excellent videos! Is the goat hoof trimmer setup something you bought or made? Game changer!

[@rollingofarm]

I made it (see video “flip table”). They do make commercially built ones.

[@karenmoreau4589]

Thank you! Most helpful - all of your videos rock!

[@rollingofarm]

Glad you like them!

[@tomcaldwell8509]

Great videos. Have you had cause to disinfect your hoof clipper if you encountered foot rot or foot scald? Such as a squirt bottle or small bucket with alcohol or other disinfectant? Thanks

[@rollingofarm]

I use to bring a coffee mug with bleach water in it that I would place my hoof shears in between animals. But just quite using it at some point.

W Polsce do wiadra wrzucam jeszcze zeszyt i długopis żeby notować numery brakujących kolczyków , przepisy uni europejskiej ..... . Film super świetnie to pokazujesz pozdrawiam :)

[@kayleypollard1965]

I’m enjoying your videos. They have great information. Do you ever have trouble with them jump over the fencing in the run when all squashed in?

[@rollingofarm]

Thanks! I’ve had one goat that figured out he could jump it. I got rid of him before he could teach the others. 😊

[@-liza]

So very helpful. Thank you.

[@rvliving1310]

I have absolutely none of that. Have never had a need for any of it.

[@bitslittle]

I really like the videos you've made. I'm new to goats and the worming topic seems a bit overwhelming. I bought 3 does, 2 of which are pregnant. One in particular had very light pink membranes. From what I could tell, albendazole was OK to use. She is somewhere around 2-3 months pregnant and seems to have handled it OK but 2 weeks later she still looks pale and now the other 2 do also. The 2 pregnant does are first timers. What would a next step be? Different wormer or vitamins? Thank you for your videos! 😊

[@rollingofarm]

I would switch dewormers and check them in another two weeks.

[@kevincrosby4336]

Hey if you did find goat thats anemic? How days would you do the iron and b complex

[@rollingofarm]

I don’t really know the answer to that. I only do it once, but I’ve heard of people doing it 3-5 days.

[@learningtogrowinChrist]

I noticed you would squeeze 1-3 times. Was this the dewormer? What made you determine how much each got? Based on how bad their eyes looked?

[@rollingofarm]

Yes, deworming drench gun. Dosage (how many squeezes) based on size/weight.

[@learningtogrowinChrist]

@@rollingofarm k thanks I have gone through your deworming videos also

[@dwightcoggin7031]

Really enjoyed your 3 Worming videos. Why would you not worm every couple of months and alternate the chemical each time instead of using one for a couple of years and then changing? Did I read that you do not vaccinate? Does that mean you do not give the CDT? Lastly, I am going to build a handling chute modeled after yours. Do you have a video on building the Catch Chute to furn the animal to check the hooves?

[@rollingofarm]

Thanks! If you worm every couple of months altering dewormers you will quickly build a resistance to all three classes of wormers and then you have nothing that will work. I do not vaccinate (including CDT). I’m not against it, I just have never had a problem that has motivated me to vaccinate. I have a video on the turn table, but I don’t know that I’ve done one on the chute itself.

[@nabillayoun]

Thank you

[@rollingofarm]

You're welcome

[@quiltsandclay]

What brand and model squeeze chute are you using for trimming hooves? Thanks

How is it your goats aren't eating the bark off the threes?

[@rollingofarm]

Oh, they do. LOL.

[@timmyclarkson9794]

Just bought some winged goats at a sale what shots do you recommend

[@rollingofarm]

I personally do not vaccinate. So I don’t give any shots unless there is some problem requiring them.

[@kristinepray1356]

What is the device you used to flip the goat to trim its nails?

[@debbiethrasher4007]

I inherited my husbands 9 goats and a buro 3 years ago. Mmmy husband jerry passed with covid. I been doing ok but now i have a nanny with a cut leg i need to treat. What do you suggest

[@rollingofarm]

If it does not need stitches, I would just spray the cut with a antiseptic (like Blue Lotion wound coat) and a fly repellent (like Catron IV). You may have to do that every couple of days till it closes up.

[@ericavitia5462]

Hello good looking heard you have may I ask what breed they are

[@rollingofarm]

Katahadin sheep and Kiko and Boer goats.

what's the dosage of LA-200 for sheep & goats? I feel like raising goats is just not cutting out for me😔 I've bought and tried corid,power punch, probiotic power, baking soda, electrolytes, and my boys rear covered in diarrhea. Today he wasn't as active. Would LA-200 help out?

[@rollingofarm]

There are a lot of things that can cause diarrhea in goats. It sounds like you have treated for coccidiosis and some digestive issues. Have you checked his eyelids to see if he is anemic? Diarrhea can be a symptom of stomach worms. If so you will need to deworm with Cydectin, Valbazin, or another oral dewormer. It could also be a bacterial infection in the gut. LA-200 could possibly help if it is gut infection (if given orally), but their are better meds for that. To answer your question, 4ml/100 lbs give as an injection for other types of infections.

[@markkhalil5215]

how often do you do this?

[@rollingofarm]

In the summer I’ll check them every 2-3 weeks.
