Usually, birthing seasons bring with them three types of emergency or sick work-in calls: dystocia (difficult labor), various prolapses where reproductive organs are pushed outside the body, and babies that won’t nurse, either because they have issues latching or because the mom isn’t doing well/doesn’t feel maternal or passed in labor. Nursing within the first few hours of life is essential to set that newborn up for success. Be it a pet goat or a production beef calf, both need colostrum to ensure they begin building strong immune systems.

🍼 Swipe through for some quick facts about colostrum — the first milk a new mom produces after birth — and how to handle babies that won’t nurse, or are unable to if the mom passes!

As always, if you’re concerned about a newborn or new mom that is struggling, please don’t hesitate to call the CLS team. We are happy to get someone out to your farm to check on things and tube babies if need be.

💡 Intern spotlight: Isabelle and Sofia!

They're with us through Dec. 19, and Sofia will return for a second week with us in the spring.

Isabelle is an undergrad at Middle Georgia State University, originally from Eastman, Georgia. Some of y'all might recognize her from previous appointments riding with Dr. Quinn! She loves working internal medicine, herd health, and small ruminant work. She was a competitive dancer and singer growing up, and turns to music when she's having a rough day. Her best college memory was this past spring, when college began to feel like home and she came out of her shell!

"I'm seriously so blessed that the Lord let me find 'my people' in college," Isabelle says. "Vet med was the one thing I always wanted to do, even from a very young age. I just knew that I wanted to follow in Grandpa's footsteps. Growing up never changed that dream, and I grow more and more excited to hopefully fulfill it."

Sofia is an undergrad at University of Georgia, and as of this picture, she'd already been awake since 2 a.m. — such is the life when you're also working at a dairy and have to be fueled up for 3:00 milkings! She is originally from Alpharetta, Georgia. Sofia is an active member of The Block and Bridle Club (UGA) and UGA Dairy Science Club, and hopes to see lots of repro cases during her time with CLS. Her favorite way to spend free time is being in nature, so if you live around Athens, you might run into her at a farmers market or the hiking trails near Bear Hollow Zoo. Sofia credits her veterinary medicine dreams in part to her high school ag teacher.

"I had an incredible ag teacher who showcased different aspects of the industry, which is where I learned about livestock medicine," she says. "Once I got to college, I found that I felt so fulfilled working with livestock in order to ensure that our food gets the proper care."

🎶 Making our list, checking it twice, gonna find out which cows are ready for calving!

Yes, we know that did not rhyme at all, but the point still stands that it’s the time of year to get with your CLS vet to talk about herd management decisions as spring calving (January through March) nears. This might include feed considerations, especially with winter weather and gestation nutritional concerns, and supplementation for magnesium and vitamin A. As far as herd health, don’t forget to schedule a check-up for your mamas-to-be. About two months prior to calving, Dr. Goggans recommends a respiratory and blackleg vaccine. However, modified live respiratory vaccines cannot be used in pregnant cattle that have not previously been exposed to this shot. Cows can also be dewormed at this time.

We’re just a few days away from Murray County BSE Day on Saturday, Dec. 13! Dr. Josey is still taking appointments, but there are only a few slots left. We would love to have a full schedule for this inaugural event! ☎️ Call Brenda at the Murray County Extension office to reserve your slots: 706 695 3031.

BSEs are $60 per herd bull and include a physical, scrotal circumference measurement, semen testing, and a brief consult with Dr. Josey regarding any concerns you may have about your bulls. In addition, the first 40 bulls registered will receive a complimentary dose of CattleMaster vaccine and Dectomax dewormer.

Thank you to our friends at Pleasant Valley Farm for hosting this event, and to Zoetis for donating vaccines and dewormer for the first 40 bulls registered!

‼️ Please note, this BSE day is for herd bulls only, not sale bulls! Sale bull BSEs can be scheduled separately with Dr. Josey.

What a fun way to kick off the month of December! 🎄 Custom Livestock Solutions staff joined forces with our sister clinic crew at Comer Veterinary Hospital to participate in our hometown Christmas parade on Saturday. We even had a few farm dogs on board — y’all might recognize Dr. Anders’ trusty assistant, Lizzie, in the group photo! It was a frigid day, but so worth it to see excited kiddos lining the streets, waving and wishing us merry Christmas and happy holidays.

🖤 Thank you to Dr. Strickland for driving the truck, and to vet assistant Lexi for providing our trailer!

👋 We'd like to introduce y'all to Grace, our CLS intern for this week (and she'll be in the truck again for a week in January)! Grace is an undergraduate student at UGA studying animal science, with a particular slant toward working with equines. She's most excited to learn about reproduction management and strategies, so naturally she jumped at the chance to ride with Dr. Goggans on her first day to transfer embryos and AI cows.
Repro work is what made her decide to pursue a career in vet med.

"There was an unmatched joy I felt the first time I felt nine little Rottweiler puppies take their first breaths as I aided in my first emergency C-section," she says. "Whether it be dogs, horses, or cows, I knew I wanted to continue delivering generations of animals to agriculture."

Grace loves trail riding and antiquing. If anyone knows where to find 💙🤍 blue and white authentic English china, let her know!

Drs. Quinn and Anders have been seeing a fair number of 🐐 goats recently that looked round, but were doing poorly. That’s because contrary to popular belief, a round goat doesn’t equal an overweight goat (although overeating can cause its own health concerns in small ruminants).

Sometimes, underlying health conditions or nutritional concerns can result in bloating or a “fat” appearance of the abdominal area, but upon closer inspection, you or your vet will notice that the animal is actually (gasp) losing weight. Weight loss in goats can indicate a number of issues that might require further testing, consultation, or diagnostics to correctly identify what’s going on with your goat.

If your goats look round in the middle but are perhaps skin-and-bones elsewhere, it might be time to schedule a visit from the CLS vets. Our team is also happy to speak with you about BCS scoring, whole-herd management aspects, and other weight-related monitoring that you can implement on your farm or livestock nonprofit!
