Of Kids and Vaccinations

     It's that time of year again. Our baby goat is ready for his 3 - 5 week C D and T (overeating

disease and tetanus) vaccination.  The vaccine is administerd sub - Q (under the skin). Watch as

Jonathan gives a tutorial on the process of administering the vaccine.  Listen carefully for the

 creative way he manage's  an active kid.



     After his shot, Prince Albert went back to the barn and snuggled with Mary.  He will be

ready for a booster in one month.



     Instead of throwing away the remainder of the vaccination, we decided to go ahead and

vaccinate the pregnant does.  This is done about one month before freshening (birth) and since

they are due in about 4 - 6 weeks it seemed the thing to do.  After their shots they did not snuggle

however.  They continued eating like nothing ever happened :)
