Nigerian Goats: Testing for Specific Diseases

Diseases can wipe out a Nigerian Goat herd. To prevent diseases, it is better to purchase your goats from tested herds. However, there still can be healthy herds that are not regularly tested. More information on dwarf goat diseases is available online. The Washington Animal Disease and Diagnostic Lab (WADDL) is one of the labs used for goat testing. There are multiple labs used for testing, you can find out which lab is closest to you to send samples for testing.
