| Foot Problems and Foot Care Foot rot disease is a serious problem when it appears in a herd. It is usually brought into the herd with a new goat you just purchased. Foot rot is caused by at least two different organisms. The infection spreads under the horny tissue of the hoof, separating it from the soft tissue underneath. Symptoms The first symptom is lameness. Goats show soreness when they walk and take their weight off the infected foot when at rest. Goats having two infected front feet may go down on their knees to graze. Prevention Provide a dry place for your goats. Bacteria can live outside the foot longer in warm, moist conditions. Also, scald, (a dermatitis between the claws), is caused by goats walking through mud and wet grass. It irritates the skin between the claws, creating an opening in the foot and allowing the ineffective bacteria to enter. When purchasing goats, buy those free of disease. Isolate all new goats from the rest of the herd until you are sure that they are not harboring the disease. Before adding any new goats to your herd, trim and hand treat their feet with a foot rot treatment. If there is any sign of foot rot, keep the new goat isolated and continue treatment until they are safe to add to the herd, or return them to the seller. Treatment There are many effective treatments to prevent foot rot. Combining the following treatments is more effective than using a single treatment. Separate healthy goats from infected ones. Pare hooves to remove or expose infected tissue. This is extremely important crevices containing unexposed bacteria can heal over. Once the rotten tissues are exposed, put the goats through a foot bath.
There are commercial foot baths and treatments. Best results come from standing goat in solution for a least 10- |
