Record Keeping In Goat Farming

As a Goat farmer, you need some basic system of record keeping. Your system should be able to give you the following information:

1. The exact number of goats that you have.

2. Number identification ( number tag).

3. The dates when your goat give birth and the number of kids born.

4. The number of goats that die (and the age when they die and cause of death).

5. The exact goats that have been treated (for what and with what).

6. Who the mother of any particular kid is.

7. When a particular goat was brought into the herd.

8. The age of any particular goat (the year it was born).

9. The number of goats sold, time when they were sold and prices obtained.

10 health challenges of goats and how to manage them as a farmer

As a farmer, it's important to be aware of potential health challenges that goats may face and take appropriate measures to manage them. Here are ten common health challenges in goats and some tips for managing them:

Parasites (Internal and External): Regular deworming and parasite control measures, such as pasture rotation, can help prevent and manage internal and external parasites in goats.

Pneumonia: Proper ventilation, good nutrition, and avoiding overcrowding can help reduce the risk of pneumonia. Vaccination against respiratory diseases is also recommended.

Enterotoxemia (Overeating Disease): Vaccination against enterotoxemia is crucial. Proper feeding management, including avoiding sudden feed changes and providing a balanced diet, can help prevent this condition.

Foot Rot: Regular hoof trimming and maintaining clean and dry living conditions can help prevent foot rot. Prompt treatment with appropriate foot treatments is necessary if foot rot occurs.

Coccidiosis: Proper sanitation and hygiene, as well as regular deworming, are important in preventing coccidiosis. Providing a clean and dry environment can also help reduce the risk.

Mastitis: Regular monitoring of udders and milk quality, as well as proper hygiene during milking, can help detect and prevent mastitis. Prompt treatment and proper sanitation are essential if mastitis occurs.

Bloat: Proper feeding management, including avoiding sudden dietary changes and providing adequate roughage, can help prevent bloat. Additionally, ensuring access to fresh and clean water is important.

Caseous Lymphadenitis (CL): Good biosecurity measures, including quarantine and testing of new animals, can help prevent the spread of CL. Prompt culling and proper sanitation are necessary if CL is diagnosed.

External Injuries: Regular monitoring of goats for injuries and providing a safe and secure environment can help prevent external injuries. Prompt treatment and proper wound care are important if injuries occur.

Metabolic Disorders (such as Ketosis or Pregnancy Toxemia): Proper nutrition, including a balanced diet and appropriate energy supplementation during critical periods, can help prevent metabolic disorders. Regular monitoring of pregnant goats and prompt veterinary care are important.

It's important to consult with a veterinarian who is knowledgeable about goat health to develop a comprehensive herd health management plan tailored to your specific farm and goat management practices.
