Title: Saanen and Contagious Warts: Post by: mikey on March 18, 2008, 11:04:10 AM Saanen goats with white skin on the udder,living in sunny regions can develop warts (papillomas) on the udder.The problem can spread through the herd after purchase of an infected animal.Some self cure at the end of lactation,some do not regress or return the next year,some transform into squamous cell carcinomas.In Australia,selection for Saanens with pigmented skin has helped to prevent warts.
