Be checking your goats, especially wethers, daily for any signs of fungus, ringworm or staph. On warm days, take the blankets off and let the goats air out. Take preventitive measures to stop fungus and ringworm.

If you have an active infection on a goat, don’t take it to a show, as it will spread to other goats. Be courteous to other showmen. Pay attention to your animals. If you notice something on them, seek help immediately. If it is active, don’t take them to a show.
