Seminar Notes

1)  The following are transcriptions of seminars I have attended and tape-recorded with the permission of the speaker.  I have organized the text for clarity, as the material from the question and answer peiods following the lectures jump around on multiple topics.  The responses from those questions are contained in the appropriate section of the lecture, along with the lecture materials.  There is no warrranty these are perfectly correct, but you will find that the most important material is included.   Contact the speaker if you have questions. They are all in PDF format.  Remember that the drug information in these notes may be outdated.  Check with your veterinarian before giving any drugs to your goats.
