Our policy on testing:

We had concerns about exposure to diseases because we go to several shows every year. We also had fellow breeders who had diagnosed CL and Johne’s in their herds. We consulted with the Johne’s Research Facility in Pennsylvania and began fecal testing for Johne’s in January of 2012. All animals tested negative.

The disadvantage to the fecal PCR test is cost. It is a fairly expensive test but getting accurate results was important to us. Experts in the field now give us a clean bill of health for Johne’s so it was worth the investment.

In addition to Johne’s, our goat herd is tested for CAE and CL. We do not have a closed goat herd but seldom add new goats. As a condition of sale, we’ve also had some of our animals tested for TB, Brucillosis and Blue Tongue and all tests have been negative.

Any rare but occasional additions to our goat herd are tested for CL, CAE and Johne’s before being released to the main herd.

Our Sheep were tested for Johne’s and OPP in 2011 and all tested negative. We will continue random testing. Additionally, we had a closed sheep herd introducing new genetics only through imported semen from New Zealand or Sweden. We subsequently have brought in a few sheep from customers of ours and they have been retested for OPP.

We have never had a contagious disease in our sheep or goat herds. Any animal with questionable symptoms has been vet tested and confirmed negative to contagious diseases. Any death from an unknown cause is extremely rare and always necropsied.

We will continue to do random testing even though exposure to these diseases through casual contact at shows is unlikely.

We are happy to have animals tested for any additional diseases at the prospective buyer’s request.
