Test Your Goats!!!! To some goat owners this may not mean anything, to others they may have heard it but do not think it pertains to them, but to informed and educated goat owners it means everything!! No matter the type of goats you raise, some form of yearly testing should be done. So what does “testing your herd” mean? This means you, as a responsible goat owner, takes the time to either 1) have your veterinarian come out to your farm and take blood samples from all the goats that are over 6 months in age or 2) draw your own blood and send it off to a laboratory for testing. This has to happen EVERY YEAR!! Reputable breeders and responsible goat owners will try and protect their goats and breeding programs from infiltration of disease, mainly Caprine Arthritis and Encephalitis (CAE); but most breeders go beyond this one type of testing. Most breeders include testing for Tuberculosis (TB), Johne’s, Brucellosis and sometimes Caseous Lymphoma (CL). They all can be done with the same blood sample that you already have drawn, except for TB which is explained below. Whether you feel competent enough to do your own blood draws is up to you. I personally like to have the vet come and pull my blood so that there is never any question as to my status of maintaining a disease free herd. (Yellow Rose Farm has maintained their disease free rating in Georgia since 2003, before that in Texas since 1998) We are lucky as most of the dairy goat herds in Georgia are free of CAE. In fact, according to the Georgia Department of Agriculture we rank as one of the top disease free states. So what to test for? Well here is where differences are going to come up, depending on what your goats purpose is, whether you test your goats or not for CAE, Johne’s, TB, Brucellosis and CL. If you raise your goats for dairy purposes you will probably want to test your herd for most of the above diseases. If you show your animals, you will definitely want to test your goats for most if not all of the above. If your goats are pets that you never decide to breed then you may not want the expense of testing and to take your chances with your pets, although I would suggest otherwise. Goats being kept for meat and fiber purposes should also be tested as it is believed that some diseases are zoonotic, which means people can contract a form of the disease. Many studies have found links between Johne’s in livestock and Crohn’s disease in humans. Do you really want to take the risk? Caprine Arthritis and Encephalitis (CAE): This disease has two forms: the arthritis (visible) and the encephalitis (internal). They both wreak havoc on dairy herds in the world. This disease causes painful arthritic joints, mastitis, decreased milk production. Once a goat has this disease they can never rid themselves of it. The disease will be passed from mother to kid through the milk. Contact Information: [email protected] Phone Toll Free 844-pygmygoats Norco, California, U.S.A SHIP WORLDWIDE Updated Wednesday, February 11, 2015 Page 20 Johne’s Disease: pronounced (Yo-knees)This disease shows up as rapid weight loss and diarrhea and may stay dormant for many years. It has been linked to Crohn’s Disease in humans. Once an animal has this disease there is no cure and it can spread very quickly in the herd. (http://www.johnes.org/goats/diagnosis.html) Tuberculosis (TB): Although this disease has not been found prevalent in the US, there are still concerns since this disease can be transmitted to humans. There are 2 strains of TB that are tested for, bovine and avian. The veterinarian will inject a tiny bit of fluid into your goat, usually at the base of the tail. They will have to come back out to the farm and read the results of the testing within 3 days. Most goats come back with no reaction, some do. In fact, it is expected that a certain percentage of goats will come back as “suspect”. Don’t fret, it happens to all of us. The USDA veterinarian will come out to your farm and make another two injections, one for bovine TB and the other for avian TB. The USDA Veterinarian will come back and read the results. Most of the time, especially if you have chickens running around it is the avian strain which causes no harm to your goats. Brucellosis: This disease can cause abortion of the fetus in late pregnancy, and in male goats can cause infertility and swollen joints. Caseous Lymphoma (CL): This disease causes abscesses around the lymph glands most often around the jawline which burst open and drain. Once this disease is in your soil it is there forever. There are vaccines available through some drug companies. What is the best way to ensure my animals we purchase are healthy? Do your homework… do not purchase at a sale barn or auction house, but purchase from a reliable breeder or goat owner. You will not get a hundred dollar dairy doe, but will have the peace of mind knowing that she comes from a disease free herd. When you go to purchase, do not just take the word of the goat owner, but ask to see the results of the testing for yourself. Also worth mentioning, one year of testing does not make a herd disease free, ask for results from previous years also!!! Even if you buy a young goat that has not been tested at least you will know that it comes from a “clean” herd. The cost of testing is expensive, I will not tell you otherwise, but in the whole scheme of things worth every penny, dollar, hundred dollars.

A: Your baby goat left till weaning will be dehorned, castrated (If applicable), be registered and you will receive the registration papers, have its first shots.

To read more visit this link http://proverbialpygmies.com/favorites.html Q. If I want a pet should I get a doe (female), or Wether (castrated male) A: If you want a pet then a doe or a wether make great pets. Both are good with children and wethers have no odor like a breeding buck does. Q. Can I get just one goat? A: Goats are herd animals and would be or could be extremely lonely and loud by themselves. Yu need to get at least two goats (or more if you want), but the good thing is that two goats are pretty much just as easy to care for. Q: Are your goats guaranteed? A: Not Guaranteed I cannot guarantee how large an animal will grow to be I cannot guarantee how much milk a good will produce I cannot guarantee that a goat will not grow scurs (small horn growths) I cannot guarantee the future health of the goat Contact Information: [email protected] Phone Toll Free 844-pygmygoats Norco, California, U.S.A SHIP WORLDWIDE Updated Wednesday, February 11, 2015 Page 22 I cannot guarantee a goat will be show quality some of these things depend on how you care for your animals. If height and show quality are a huge concern to you, then you might want to consider buying an adult goat so you will already7 know what they will look like Q.

A: Major credit cards MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Discover, Pay-Pal, Cash or Checks Q: Where Can I see you past kids you have sold? A: for 2011 and for 2012 Q: Do you sell bottle babies? A: Yes, they are available a day or two after birth. We cannot ship bottle babies till they are at least 4 weeks old. Q: What about shipping from California to colder climates A: Make sure you acclimate your pygmy goat to your new climate gradually. They need a draft free dry shelter. Keeping them inside where it is warm and gradually exposing them to the new temperature is advisable. Q: Do goats need a companion? A: They must always have another goat as a companion. They form a lifelong friendship with their companions, and will mourn for their companion if separated. A wether (neutered male goat) can be used as a companion for a doe (female goat) or a buck (male goat). Other herd animals can be substituted such as a calf, horse, or lamb, but two goats are always better than one. Q: What about predators? A: Predators can be a threat to goats. Stray dogs, neighborhood dogs, family dogs, coyotes, even hawks could all be a potential danger to a helpless goat. If there is a danger of predators, then the goats can be locked up at night in a shelter. Livestock guardian dogs can be used such as the Great Pyrenees for protection but be aware they do require training when they are puppies. Q: Who are some of your celebrity clients?

So even though you may be interested in an animal. While you are deciding someone else may purchase the animal. We also work with several breeders and if you definitely want a specific animal I need to check with them to make sure that it is still available. It is possible they have sold it since our last contact. Available for Viewing – This means the animals are residents at Amber Waves all other goats are scattered around Southern California and will be brought to Amber Waves for pick-up or shipping upon payment of such animals. This has worked out very well. Board – Amount of money due per animal per doe while animals are waiting for shipment. Bred – Means a doe is bred Buckling - A young buck (male) kid. Champion – this could mean a Junior Champion, Reserve Junior Champion, Reserve Grand Champion or Grand Champion win. Crate Size – this is the size of crate required to ship the animal. Note that weanlings can usually go two to a 400 or 500 crate which can save considerable money Doe Ultra-Sounded Pregnant – Means a vet has checked the doe and confirmed she is pregnant at the time of the exam. Exposed – Means the doe has been with a buck but has not been confirmed pregnant Installment Plans – When you pay through PayPal you can get six months interest free financing.

International Shipments Contact Information: [email protected] Phone Toll Free 844-pygmygoats Norco, California, U.S.A SHIP WORLDWIDE Page 24 Updated Wednesday, February 11, 2015 General International Shipping Cost Information Here are some rough ideas of shipping costs. Shipping costs are based on the size of the crate and the number of animals shipped. The more animals shipped will reduce the cost per goat shipped. To get an accurate quote you need to contact Michael at Global Animal Transport. (Contact information is below) before doing that you need to select the animals you want o ship so we can give global a list of crate sizes. Comments from Global Animal Transport Keep in mind that the USDA Services are mandatory and they are basically flat rated meaning that it’s based upon the timeline not the number of heads being shipped. Our rates to Kuwait for the flight are flat rated under our contract; therefore, whether we ship 15 or 25 the cost isn’t going to change for that. The only variable is the number, size and costs for the kennels required and the endorsements for the health certificates. I just want you and those to understand that as they add to the number of goats there cost per goat go down. When they order only a few goats (1-4) the costs for the USDA do not change, we start out with a cost of about $1100.00 - $1200.00 to the transport that we cannot do anything about. The variables from there are again the kennels and the freight costs and we work with as many airlines as we can to get the best costs & services for the goats. We’ll always do everything we can to succeed for our mutual benefit, but it seems that some people get very angry with the estimates and we really can’t do much about them as we are forced to follow the USDA mandates and requirements. Obviously, and I know it’s a point we’ve both tried to advise clients is that the younger the animals are at the time of shipment, the lower the costs. We can use few kennels for more animals and the size of those kennels can also be smaller.

Note it is always cheaper to ship babies plus you can ship two babies in one crate saving considerable money over shipping two crates.
