Goats/copper

Just thought I'd pass this thought on in case anyone was interested.

 

I have always thought that when people tried to keep goats in with their sheep they suffered from a Copper deficiency. Making them more vunerable to lots of issues but especially worms.

 

There is a sustained release mineral shot that I have started useing on the calves-- it has zinc selenium and Copper.

I wonder if it wouldn't be useful to give the goats kept with sheep???

I tried finding SSR boluses with just Cu-- but couldn't find a source with the goat size.
