greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

Hi everyone~ Thank you so much for your help with my Togg. doe. I fed her vitamin C, masaged her udder with Vix Vapor rub, and got her tested for CAE. Her udder seems much better now and the best news of all is both her and my other doe are negative! :) And i just got back from my county fair and in the FFA show all my does got best in the class they were in and my udder problem doe got Champ. Togg. doe. Would of liked to stay for open show but was worn out from the week. THANKS AGAIN !!

Congrats on the wins but much more important is the peace of mind that comes from a negative test! Before next kidding, milk her early, lower the protein in your grain, decrease your mollassas, perhaps adding the vitamin C to her diet before she kids. All of these will help with the udder edema she had this year! Good luck with your doe! Vicki
