Saturday afternoon my children and I tackled the job of vaccinating all the babies. This usually can be a challenging event as sometimes arguments occur as to who has what job assigned to them. This time, everything worked great. We vaccinated 84 babies. Lori was the supreme goat catcher, Megan was a close 2nd but had the major job of double checking all tag records, and recording them as they received their shots, and Kaylee helped catch the babies, and placed a green mark after they received their shots. This helped us identify who we needed to catch yet. I don't really have working facilities yet, so I rely on the speed of my kids. Nate and Mr. Farmer were at a farm sale so they missed out on all the excitement, but Nate said we missed out on some good pie! I have received a few emails as to what product I vaccinate with so I have included a photo. I order mine from Mid-states wool, but I know Valley Vet, Tractor Supply, and Orschelin's also carry it. 2cc's given under the skin and then repeated in 2-3 weeks. The only thing that could have made it better was if our "Haley" would have been there.
