Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Beyond The Stars: Understanding ADGA Milk Records with Jessica Bell
Q: What role do the star and GCH designations play in your breeding decisions?
The designations provide a framework to track production consistency across generations, guiding which animals to keep or breed and how to align breeding plans with long-term herd goals.
Beyond The Stars: Understanding ADGA Milk Records with Jessica Bell
Q: What does a typical milk test day look like on Split Creek Farm?
We run a structured schedule with multiple milkers or testers, calibrate scales, and follow a walk-through process to collect and weigh samples, aiming to keep consistent timing and routine each test day.
Beyond The Stars: Understanding ADGA Milk Records with Jessica Bell
Q: Jessica, can you tell us a little bit about yourself for those that aren't aware of who you are?
I'm Jessica Bell, owner of Split Creek Farm in South Carolina, with a long history in dairy goats and a strong focus on using production data to guide breeding and management decisions.
Rabies in Goats with Dr. Melissa Holahan
Q: What should a farmer do if a goat is suspected of having rabies?
Isolate the animal, limit who handles it, call the veterinarian (and potentially the state veterinarian) for guidance, and reportable disease procedures may be initiated depending on state rules and exposure risk.
Rabies in Goats with Dr. Melissa Holahan
Q: Should goats be vaccinated against rabies?
There is no labeled goat rabies vaccine, but killed large-animal vaccines used off-label in goats have shown protective antibody responses; vaccination is discussed on a case-by-case basis with a veterinarian, especially for agritourism goats.
