Oh, I'm so sorry, your very favorite goat. I hope she heals ok.
Give her more time--soft tissue damage can take a while., she seems happy .... you are so Wonderful to all your animals---! Such fantastic care and love--and they love you back. Please keep us up to date on this girl....and please tell her not to worry her Mom so much !lol...
I had this exact same thing happen to my 4 year old doe, she was literally acting the same, no signs of pain no swelling no warm or hot spots and she limped around for nearly 2 weeks, I would give antiinflammatories/pain meds and one day she was just fine, vet said probably pulled a muscle jumping into the fence or jumping off the (goat playground)
Oh I hope that happens for Crystal and Maybeline.
That's promising! Thank you!
I really pray this is the case for Maybaline. 💙
Prayers for Miss Maybelline
The way she's moving and rolling that shoulder in a few shots, it definitely looks like it's the problem. She's stiffer/hitching in the shoulder than in the actual leg. It's very possible she just pulled/sprained it. Fingers crossed it will heal up perfectly.
I hope Maybelline does get better. She so Docile, and calm. Something is wrong because she hanging around u so much Crystal. Hopefully it will show up later or just go away and she will do better
Hoping for her, and thank u for always communicating with us on the Babies.
Your FAVE! Praying
Prayers for Maybelline for quick healing, and prayers for Crystal that she doesn't go crazy trying to figure this out! Just keep doing what you're doing, Loving Goat Mama...
If she has tissue damage or a pulled muscle,time is all you can give her. Your so good to all the animals.💗.
I've never had goats but I have permanent nerve damage & everything you were saying about the vet being stumped, I've heard it all before. Alas, I limp & walk differently & nothing helps. Good luck to you & Maybelline.
Awe poor sweet Maybeline. I'm sure you are doing everything you can to make her better Crystal! ❤
Reminds me of my Aussie when she dislocated her shoulder jumping into the truck years ago. She never showed pain and didnt cry when manipulating it. I had no idea it was dislocated for a couple weeks when i finally had a vet check her out when it didnt want to improve. She would avoid standing on it if she stood still yet would walk on it with a limp. She did the same stance of holding it off the ground straight legged. I would think an xray would show its out of place though so thats probably not it. BUT that doesnt mean she didnt dislocate it and managed to get it back in on her own and the muscles are stretched out making the shoulder unstable so she avoids using it. If thats the case the she will improve as the muscles tighten back up to support it again since thats all that really holds it in place.
dislocation was possible, but it would have shown on xray. Also she would've been uncomfortable for movement
@@cloudedcolour5329 it would only show if STILL dislocated. If she popped it out and back in and just has loose muscles or residual bruising in the area it wont show on an x-ray. And prey animals are build to mask pain so they dont get targeted...
@@aslan-leemckee695 this is true I dislocated my knee and it was still tender weeks after. Dislocations can go back in themselves.
We had this happen to a buckling. He decide a nasty headbutts from a larger buck. We actually thought he had a breadstick fracture. It took him about 3 weeks to really put weight on his front leg. We did place his feeder higher off the ground so that he had to stand on a step to reach it. Vet said it was good PT for him. Separation from other bigger more aggressive/dominate goats helped too.
Poor baby. I know it would have been difficult but I think you should try to film the whole process next time, from discovery of the injury, the vet visit, etc. We would like to join y'all on your journey with these types of things.
How heartbreaking. You know it's difficult when Crystal calls the vet.
Exactly
You know us well!
Hope she will be okay she’s one of my favorites
My buck did that and my vet thought he had CAE but the bloodwork was negative. Never did figure out why sometimes he won’t put weight on his foreleg but maybe he has nerve damage. Thanks for this video, very informative 💜
Maybe needs an animal chiropractor. A pinched nerve or something just out of whack. Hope she gets better. My mother in laws leg is not working and no feeling. Doctors couldn't figure it out with a ton of test. Now seeing chiropractor and he's working on upper neck spine area. We are seeing hope. She can now move her toe and sometimes her foot. I used to take my dog to chiro. Her back would get off, you could feel hot spot by spine and she'd leak urine. After chiro she was better. Who knew a chiropractor worked on animals!
Love your videos ❤. Waiting for goat show videos 🤞🤞.
We have a Buck that is going through the exact same scenario. We will be watching him while you watch Maybelline.
So sorry to hear about her leg.
My happy goat place 🐐😉
I hope miss Maybelline feels better soon!!! Your 4th celebrations looked like fun!
You are the best grandma ever!!!!
Prayers for Miss Maybelline.
So sorry Maybelline is hurting. It does look like a pulled muscle. You are doing a great job keeping on top of it & keeping her pain-free. Watching your Firemen's Field Day activities was fun! All our Field Days have been gone for a few yrs now, due to lack of funding. They were lots of fun. Your granddaughter's laugh cracked me up. Such a cutie.
You are so caring for your goats and pets. So reassuring.
Dear Crystal, I love your beautiful Doe, Maybeline and I hope whatever the problem is, she will overcome it, or there is a minor condition that can be worked out. It might be a bit of arthritis.try running her a little at a time, that might improve her.
Maybe a bruised on her pad from a rock Prayers to Maybeline 🐐🙏🙏🙏🙏🐐🐐🙏 Debbie from Texas
had similar happen to my dog, n after multiple vet visits, xray(nothing found), pain meds joint supplements, vet did a cocci titer which came back positive. after a few days on fluconazole, he's not limping anymore!
Hi Crystal; as usual, you educate us with something new every time.
Sounds like you and the Vet did a good job trouble-shooting causes.
The pain meds, if they have an anti-inflammatory action, sound like the right treatment.
The girls haven't been out browsing in a while --- she might have been playing or jumping around,
bruised a muscle or whatever. Time will tell --- and healing takes time!
Thank you for sharing this incident - you're the best!
Poor baby miss. Prayers for her to get better
I have a 5month old doeling who was limping for like 3wks, I finally took her to the vet and they did the x-ray and didn't find anything. Yet she limped for a while but the antiflammatories worked. I also did some massage on that shoulder and leg every day for a week or so and Liniment that’s safe (it's sold for horses & smells like spearmint). She’s not limping now. Hopefully, Maybelline just needs some TLC and time!
The liniment is a good idea!!!
She may have pulled a muscle up in her shoulder. looking at the angle she is comfortable putting weight on it makes it seem possible. The muscle is probably pulling when she's flat on the ground, but when she jumps up may ease the tension in it. *Not a vet* i had a dog pull a shoulder muscle and do something similar, he would stand his upper half onto the couch to stretch it
Thank you!
Not a Vet either, but been around a lot of performance animals (dogs, horses, sheep used at herding trials who get soft tissue injuries) and I agree, this looks like a shoulder muscle problem. The way she's using her front looks like it's a higher issue than the pastern, knee, or hoof area. Painkillers seems the only route at this time to get her to keep using those muscles so she doesn't injure the other side by overuse.
I totally agree! Give her a little time and she will be as good as new.
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats crystal, on average how much does a male goat age between 6-8 months old that has been castrated cost. Im looking at buying 2 of them.
Yes that is what I was thinking the problem is higher up.
I will be praying for your precious goat Maybaline.
Hope Miss Maybelline gets better soon 🤞 I think maybe DaNelle may have some experience with this with Tilly. I remember she broke her leg a few years ago, it got better but then Dorris rammed her and she was limping for a bit.
Is there something in the foot that may not show up in the x-ray
Stone bruise or abcess in foot that you can't detect yet?
99% positive there's nothing wrong with her hoof. I've been watching her like a hawk, and seems to be in her shoulder area. Which the vet said there was nothing wrong from the X-Ray
Nothing in her foot
Could her foot pad be stone bruised or something....we watch you and loved Derick doing deliveries. Hope for the best!!
She commented above that her foot/hoof was thoroughly covered and they saw nothing.
Yes many Prayers for maybellin! Poor thing! Gabapentin is a nerve blocking agent which I believe they also use an animals that might be an option as well if it is nerve related?!
Sending prayers for a quick healing!
Oh man i hope it gets better! If not better then i guess she either becomes a pet or a whether? Is it possible to ice it? I know crazy! Maybelline is one of my favorites in the older does!! Darn it darn it!! Prayers she gets better!!
I have the same thing going on with one of my bucks. He has been doing this 4 months! I just saw someone new about it and they suggested treating for meningeal worms. It’s not the typical presentation but from my research it seems like it can present where a goat just lifts one hoof. I started treatment yesterday. I’ll let you know how it goes!
I hope she gets well soon. I love watching how you take care of your animals. I praying for her
LOVE LOVE LOVE the 4th of July celebration!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!
I'm so sorry to hear about Maybeline I hope she gets better soon. I was thinking about Willow the goat of Weed and Reep that her mom Penny had a problem in their front leg....i hope is not that. My prayers🙏🙏🙏
ITS NOT GENETIC, THIS IS INJURY.
Maybe she's trying to start a new way of standing sexy. LOL
I will keep precious Maybelline in my thoughts. I love the way you love your babies.
Lol. I wish!
So sorry about Maybelline, wishing her a quick recovery I love 💕 your videos thanks for sharing
Sorry to hear about your baby, I know dogs and goats are very different but when my grand champion hand a leg like this we found out it was stone bruise from running thru a rough ring. It healed on its own eventually.
You could try massage, that will bring blood to the muscles and may help with the healing. When she stepped up on the chair she used that leg to get there. Hope you can work it out.
I have been massaging her!
I had a vet tell me to massage my dog when her back legs stopped working. Said to go down lower back spine into legs. It helped she started walking in a week and a half
Crystal, I absolutely love your devotion and enthusiasm for your goats, their babies and other animals. Your whole family has the best spirit. In case you don’t remember I am one of your fans that cannot see so I rely on hearing and while this video was made it sounded like Derek possibly was making concrete in a wheel barrel LOL. Hard at work once again seems like his butt may have recovered from all of that driving and he’s hard at work on all the new plants for the farm. Also, when the babies are born you give such in-depth descriptions that I can see the babies in my mind as far as their colors and spots. Prayers for sweet Maybelline.
Try acupuncture or chiropractor. Looks like a contracture of the shoulder joint looks like she’s stiff in that area, looks like one leg is shorter than the other because it’s pulling up. Xx good luck
Hope she gets better soon. Praying for her.
Prayers for her... and wish for her speedy recovery take care
Myb she have a splinter or little piece of glass you never know praying for her full recovery. Hi from fort worth tx violet medrano. Blessing always.
Hi, my dog had a similar problem when she was younger, she had pulled a set of muscles in her neck while playing with another dog. It took a month of pain meds and no excessive exercise, plus we had to remove her collar so she wouldn't catch it while scratching or if we forgot and grabbed for it. She just wouldn't put weight on the front right leg. It has returned on occasions but now we know just to restricted movement especially jumping up onto high furniture. I hope this helps you and good luck.
Fingers crossed and prayers that Maybelline heals up..
That giggle just so cute..🤩
Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻
Stay positive sending prayers
Sending prayers and asking God to help you.
I know it’s different but my dog Dixie whacked her leg really hard one time no breaks fractures or dislocations and she stood and moved with the damaged leg raised like your goat but it took around 4-5 weeks to heal I had to completely minimise her exercise but she has completely healed
Could it be with her hoof? She looks fine when she’s kneeling on the stool. Poor Maybeline! Get better sweet baby girl
Nothing with the hoof.
I think he may have bruised her inside of her hoof you know the part where goes from the bone to the there's a little click and it is I want to say muscles that I don't think it's called that with a good good look at the x-rays right there it looks like that to me when I seen that right that it's boost that's what happens in sheep big bruise right there
I pray Maybelline's leg will get strong and return to a normal state soon. May God bless!
i know a youtube who had a pug who died from nerve damage it was a sad video
Get better she so beautiful ! Praying for her pain to go away ! ❤️
I’m sorry for the injury, hope it gets better soon.
Poor Maybelline! Hope she improves. She is so beautiful!
Hello... I love how you love your Goats! I know goats, are not dogs.. but the symptoms Mabeline is suffering with... the muscle mass loss in the shoulder and leg, the not touching the foot to the ground, the non reaction of pain in the initial noticing that there is a problem with the animal. makes me think it could be valley fever, or a some other fungal thing? with as dry as it has been here in Cochise county the last 2 monsoons seasons. my Dog had caught valley fever and watching you examine Miss Mabeline, Valley Fever came to mind. some blood work to check her titer count would rule it out and reveal any anomiles. Can Goats Get Valley Fever?
If possible Cut open a paper towel roll and place over the length of her leg then wrap ace bandage over it could be similar to ACL tear in dog
My wether has been like this for over 6 months now, since he was only a few months old. Doesn't put much pressure on his front right leg, although he does still jump and play. Have taken him to 2 vets, had an xray done, given meloxicam and steroids, nothing seems to help or give any indication as to the cause.
Awe! I hope she’s feeling better. Sweet girl.
Prayers for your sweet Maybelline. 🙏🏻❤️
Poor Maybelline and you too😩🥰🌸
I have two dogs one big siberian husky and one small puggle, the husky Bella head butted coco on the rear flank she acted the exact same way nothing was wrong as far as dislocation or break....suspected soft tissue. Hot and ice pack treatments 15 min off 15 min on...as much as possible for a few days...anti inflammatory meds...within a 3 weeks to a month all better..
The foot check the foot real well.
Love small town 4th of July celebrations. Their the best.😊😊✌✌
She's doing just what my buck is doing- possibly a hyperextended knee. I found some MSM for goats from an equine supply and it has helped. He dangles his foot just like she does- but otherwise he runs & jumps like normal and no limp. Just hangs her leg when just standing.
A genetic condition takes time to show this is an injury.
I am going through the same thing!!!! Took to vet and had x-rays and everything looks normal. Was given anti -inflammatory meds for 2 weeks. Seemed to be alittle better then after meds the same thing. Its worse in the morning when she gets up or gets up from sitting for awhile. She is my favorite and is 1 1/2. I have noticed muscle deterioration also . I feel so bad every day and dont know what to do next. Thank you for posting this video. I will keeping an eye on what others say. Please post an update on her. I am totally lost :(
Poor Maybelline prayers for her love her take care of her❤️🙏🏼
I so hope this passes quickly and she is back to normal!!!! I must say she is so slick and beautiful!!!! Her coat shines and she looks awesome!!!! Reading the comments it sounds promising that she may just have a muscle strain. Although I agree that her kneeling on that stool she was really putting her weight on the leg. I'm wondering if a pulled muscle around her ankle joint? Prayers for her healing!!!!
Prayers sent out for Maybelline I know myself pain sucks get better sweetheart
Pray she gets better, Looks like yall was having some fun very pretty
Oh no! Not maybelline 😥
Any injuries like this I would always treat with vitamin E. Syringe full of cod liver oil morning and night plus injections of Vitamin E for about 3 days and they're on the mend. Even helped with breaks. Love a natural cure when I can.🇦🇺
Poor Maybeline. Hope she gets better. Stay awesome. ❤️
I know nothing about goats, but I do know something about big dogs like Dane (I've been owned by Newfoundlands for the last 20 years or so). Having had a big dog suddenly go lame and intermittently use a foreleg or not bear weight on it at all ... well, it turned out to be a pinched nerve in the dog's neck. A veterinary chiropractor was able to feel the misalignment of the vertebrae that caused the nerve issue in the foreleg. X-ray confirmed the misalignment and it was so so so minimal ... but, it created a huge, visible, more often than not, lameness. Chiropractic adjustments over a few weeks helped relieve the 'pinch', and gentle exercise, and massage, with minimal use of anti-inflammatories, and hey presto! 150 pound dog didn't limp again for the next 10 years of his life.
Just a thought. Good luck!
I know I'm comparing dogs to goats but my poodle had a similar problem where she wouldn't put her foot down and was limping. I gave her some baby aspirin and within a day or two she was all better. I bet it's a sprain where another goat rammed her shoulder.
Try checking between her toes it could be something as simple as a seed head working its way into the soft skin and hidden by hair. Just a thought. Good luck with her I hope she recovers.
Already have a million times daily 😞
Have you checked the hooves? In the middle part where you trim the hair away. Try massages on her back and neck. o they have like our sciatica nerve? what about a stone bruise or a cactus needle even the tiniest. Soak it in Epson Salt. I had to do my horse and yes it was a hot soak.
Oh bless her she’s such a lovely goat x
I can definitely see something isn't right. I have no experience with goats at all but look into essential oils that can be used safely on goats for nerve/tissue damage issues. I can not express how many times I've seen essential oils work in other animals including my mom's horses, our guinea pigs, rabbits, quail. Just a thought though to think about exploring. We all want Maybelline to be better and we all know how special she is to you. ((Hugs)) from this Iowa gal, keep us all posted on how she is doing please.
Hey guys, remember when Webster had firemen waterball competition between towns during the Mermaid Fair? Brought back memories seeing it again. Hope all is well with you and family. ❤️ to all
Prayers that she gets better soon
I hope she gets better real soon. ❤️
Check the hoof.
She is a beautiful goat.
Sending prayers for mabaline
I've had this happen to a doe last year. Ours ended up having a fence staple in her hoof. It was not deep but enough to cause a limp. Hopefully its something simpler 💗🙏
Hoof is in perfect condition.
Chiropractor maybe??
Over thinking!.. I do it too. When you care its easy to do. Give her time. She will be ok. Think positive thoughts goat mama. I'll be praying for her recovery....
I can see her not putting weight on it..She is a pretty doe.. Hang in there keep us posted...usually muscular when they act like that. ❤🙏🏼🙏🏼
Jeanne
We had a yearling doe have this happen, ended up on steroids a few days and she was good as new.
I see it was a bit further back. I hope she makes a full recovery. Maybe just an adhesion.
