What dewormers do y’all use on pregnant does?
In 20 years of raising milk goats and milking them, the only thing that I have ever used for wormer is pine needles and fir needles. I just give them a regular supply of tree branches from my trees. I have to keep the branches trimmed up for wood quality down the road anyways and just 4 trees will give me a truck load of branches.
The turpentine in the needles and bark is a natural dewormer.
