Description

Goat skin is different from goatskin. Dealing with skin stuff while the skin is still on the goat is the topic of this episode.This episode talks about external parasite (lice, mites, fleas, ticks), a little bit about Orf (aka Soremouth), zinc responsive dermatoses (and my pet theory about well water's role in that skin condition), and touch on the "zebras," skin cancers, and non-healing lesions, and what to do with those (hint: call the vet, but I'll explain why).Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/goatdoc.
