Shannon, so glad you found an answer to what happened and why they died. And a good thing to know what to treat them with to save them,
Pneumonia is a silent killer of goats too. We have had that happen when we didn't catch it fast enough. We have woods on one side and neighbors on the other. But all of our herd is on the side with the woods. One neighbor sprays the fence line although we haven't seen them do so. What breed of goat do you have? You amaze me making all the various kinds of cheese!

You are right about that, Grace! We don't have cats but have had one in the past. We have four LGD's that watch our herd. Plus chickens and rabbits. Currently do not have pigs or turkeys. All them make for good farm entertainment watching them.

So true Grace! And whenever we have to stay in hotels I miss a cat on the bed. Hotels should have complimentary loaner cats.

We have had some die in the past from pneumonia. In fact, enough so that we give the vaccine. Our weather goes from one extreme to the other and we have crazy winds which just makes things "ripe" for pneumonia. We raise primarily Nubians, but we also just started raising Boer goats as well.
