That's what I used. Mix about 1/4 to 1/2 cup bleach to a gallon of water. Spray everything and let dry. I did the doorways, barn walls, but especially the hay feeders and fences where my goats would rub or stick their heads through. Maggie Leman Goat 911 Capri Medic | ||

I am thinking a bleach solution applied with a pump up sprayer, does that sound about right? What water/bleach would you use? Thanks | ||

Disinfect the hay feeders the fence line, the water trough anywhere where goats may rub their faces. The tears and crud from the infected ones that gets smeared off on these spreads the disease. I had a particularly resistant strain go through my herd several years ago and wound up putting everyone on LA 200 injections daily for a week or so. You might try every other day for 3 or 4 treatments.... Maggie Leman Goat 911 Capri Medic | ||

A fellow goat owner has been battleing pink eye all fall. Just when she thinks she has it cleared up in her herd another crop shows up. This has really cut into her breeding, mine also as we co-own the buck. Any new ideas? |
