I am definately going to have to powerwash my goat area of the barn - I figure powerwashing sould really get the bad germs peeled away from the wood. I guess I could add bleach to the powerwashing line from the intake tube.

I was told that its nearly impossible to dissenfect wood. Is the true,and if so would powerwashing, followed by a nice coating of paint help any? I usually offer buck service but had to refuse does the past few weeks due to the soremouth for fear of spreading it to the visitors.

As for pastures - raking it up well, and a heavy dosing of lime should do the trick?

Thanks Everyone!

It seems like he's looking a bit more alive - actuially tried to run off as I gave him his shots today. He's still a thin little thing so he's got a way to getting back to proper weight. I hope New England Winter holds off a litttle more.
