Hadsty23:
Boss, please help me look at this below:
She has been battling this when breastfeeding the infant.

One breast seems smaller and the kid are only able to suck from the smaller breast only. I had called a vet for her 2years ago but a quack one, instead the vet almost got her killed.
And since then I did not time to check on the goat

The kids always ended growing up malnourished with retarded growth and pale skincolor

Mr @Jidestroud and all boss, please I need a help on this

The breast is not producing enough milk or its deformed?
Oxytocin helps with milk production. Left to me, I'll cull the goat and only get goats with good breast structure. Its best to always physically examine any goat you want to get.

Jakumo:



The Fulani herdsmen generally have a regional Seriki leader who can be bribed with cash to direct his subordinates to stay away from certain farms and to prevent herdsmen who are NOT part of their cooperative from showing up in a specific area covered by such an agreement.

Contacting the police after the fact is a pointless course of action because the police have been instructed from the federal level to hands-off any and all farmer's complaints about crop damage. It is better to accept this reality and use strategic bribes to prevent invasions from occurring in the first place.

Bribing! This sad
I think the best thing to do is employ local vigilantes and add better dogs to your farm boerboel, cane Corso, German shepherd and our local bingo dog, it will make the Fulanis think twice before attacking. My suggestion, because once you bribe them, you have started bribing them and it will never stop,if you insist that you won't bribe again they will attack your farm, so best thing is this option I listed

adamix:

We dont have them anymore. Someone got them for us so I can't be certain the correct price

Thanks for the update. I just want to have an idea what the price is like.

adamix:

Congratulations sir. I'm still learning on this journey, I've read lots of things and being in WhatsApp group with different nigerian goat farmers also helps. Ultimately, experiencing it is different from reading about it and thats why they always advice to start small and scale

Could you pls connect me to those WhatsApp groups 07030114862

Ultimately the Fulani herdsmen are backed by the might of federal troops, who have in the past been drafted to attack farmers who tried to resist the destruction of their crops and the conversion of their landed property into Fulani encampments. One can either test the might of the federal power structure and thus assume the mortal risks such a suicidal stand implies, or one can simply accept the reality that is Nigeria today, and pay "protection money" to the criminal invaders, in order to qualify for exemption from their land annexation agenda currently unfolding nationwide in Nigeria.

this sad. But I don't think paying Fulanis will forever solve the problem. But finding a way to forever solve the problem, even if is collaborating with other farmers in your area and people in your area to employ armed security men, dogs, to protect you and your farm from herdsmen.

And you never ever told me OUR Farm has a thread on Nairaland Mr Adams I dey vex like this.Make I begin follow bumper to bumper

This is quiet interesting Sir but I will advise you don't need 'Plenty'goats on your farm inorder to thrive in livestock farming.
I know of a farmer that started his farm 20 years ago in ratio 3:7(Male/Female)


This is 2023 he still has quiet a no of goats on his farm all products of the first generation.He hasn't added a goat ever since and immediately a particular female shows signs of menopause he sells it off and create more spaces for the younger ones.

In times of financial crisis he sells a goat to ameliorate,he just sold some goats now that school reopened to send the children back to school.

Don't know if I'm being feminine but me think the less goats you have to care for on the farm;the lesser the maintenance and when they're adequately taken care of with the abundance resources the higher the outputs. Case study of an average Nigeria family each having a fixed income but their numbers in ratio 3:12.

Fewer Energetic Vibrant and Disease Resistant Breed means:


*Lower Manpower
*Lower Clinical Needs
*Lower Feeds
*More output (kids)
And lots more........
This is my perspectives please
