Goat sound out! assured best answer?
I got goats and I haven't had them long, I feed them and they enjoy plenty of grass and stuff to graze in. However, For some reason, close to the back of their spine it gets really skinny, under that they're good and solid, but near their back bone towards the back they're really skinny, whats wrong?
dont verbs about it its probaly natural (that i have seen)
What breed of goats do you have?? Dairy goats unanimously have a prominant backbone, meat goats do not. As others have suggested, worm them. They call for to be on a regular worming schedule anyway. When I raised show goats they wormed respectively time the feet were trimmed or when they had lucid signs of parasites. Ask local breeders (or the person you got them from) give or take a few the types of effective wormers they use.

You mean similar to this goat? Skinny in the loin?
It's just how they are. If you can't see their backbone they are waaaaaay to tubby and that is not healthy. It sounds like yours are suitable. Do be sure and worm them regularly though. Worms are a big problem in goats.
They are probably ok, but have you dewormed them?
Being wormy can bestow them that appearance.
They probably have internal parasites, or worms. They should acquire wormed. I use "Valbezen", which is what my vet recommended, and it works very well.
Good luck!!
Normal appearance for goats.
It's probably normal but they could also need a good deworming.
