Lyme in goats

Hi everybody! My boys are doing so well. I really appreciate all the helpful advice I find on this forum! At any rate, I have found a little info on this but just wanted to put the question out there and see if anyone had any experience. We live in PA, where we have a lot of deer ticks. I found one on my boy Frankie's ear yesterday and tried to pull it out. It was not plump yet and may only have been there a little bit. I am curious how worried I should be about Lyme in him. Anything to watch out for?

  • I have never heard of a case of it in goats, and Goat Medicine says that there have been no cases in goats that have been confirmed.
