Small ruminants, in particular goats, are becoming more popular as pets and as food animals due to their small size and easy sustainability. Prior to purchasing a small ruminant, we recommend that future owners contact their veterinarian for information on their healthcare and nutrition. The major health issue facing small ruminants is parasite resistance to the commonly available dewormers. In order to reduce the risk of anthelmintic resistance in your herd, proper management is essential. More information on your small ruminant's health is available via powerpoint presentations and lectures. We are happy to discuss any questions you may have regarding your goat or sheep.
