Product Questions
How many bites come in a package?
Our large 13oz packages contain approximately 80 treats. Our small 5oz packages contain 30 treats.
How long will a package last?
Well, that depends not only on the size of your goat, but the amount of goats you are treating. One large package of herbal bites will provide an adult Nigerian Dwarf or other small breed goat approximately 80 doses, 160 doses for a goat kid under 35 lbs, and 40 doses for most standard sized goats. The amount of doses you will need over the course of the month depends on which herbal bite you are getting. We have listed “suggested bite size” on each product description so you can calculate how long a package should last.
Can goats overdose on herbal supplements?
Yes, but it is worth noting that it would be nearly impossible for your goat to get enough supplements in their system, especially in this treat form. A goat would most likely suffer from bloat from overeating before they ever had a negative indication from the supplements inside.
One common concern regarding herbs in our treats is wormwood. There is some controversy about it’s safety during the beginning stages of pregnancy. If you are uncomfortable with providing wormwood to your pregnant doe, you can cease using Squirmy Wormy until your doe’s 3rd month of pregnancy. Just make sure to do the starter dose (twice a day for five days) again when you are ready to commence use. You can also use diatomaceous earth throughout pregnancy and begin using Squirmy Wormy after your doe kids.
Do you offer wholesale?
We are hoping to offer wholesale to distributors shortly, but while we are starting up, we cannot handle the demand it would require. Please be sure to check back again at a later date.
