Not sure, Lost In the Woods is Good- I like WhirlWoods, and My idea is umm..... how about Wooden Patch? Also what is a very abundant tree on your farm?
We got some Ivermectin into him. He has had dimethox once before for 5 days and Corid once before for 5 days as well. We started him on Dimethox yesterday and he got another dose this morning. If he is still bad tomorrow, I will get some Iron or Red Cell, but we already went to TSC tonight and...
Okay today he took his dosage of dimethox and probiotics. He got 2 fl oz of the whole cows milk and the rest was the formula. Tonight he only drank 3/4 of his milk tonight and all of it this morning. He has started laying down a lot. He has still peed and pooped though with normal balls and is...
Also I have already started looking for a new wether of any breed/ or mixed with or without papers for him. I really hate having him alone even thought he can see the does! I did set out a couple things for him to play with today a ball, a ramp, and a tree stump.
X2 on what Pearce Pastures said, Hay, water, and mineral are good. Depending on their back ground, they may never of had the option of hay or grain or leaves, so they might not want anything to do with them. And like eleven said, same with being dam raised moving to a bottle. Anyway, Probiotics...
I reall only know about the copper thing. Goats need a lot more copper than sheep do if sheep CAN have any at all idk, but anyway I think wormer for sheep is good fro goats and she looked hind of like a pygmy maybe. Congratulations she is very cute!
Thank you very much. I was with him for most of the day. My biggest fear was that he would get it too from stressing so much over his brother. He was much better this afternoon and wasn't looking for his brother as much. He drank all of his milk with the probiotics in it too. He has also been...
He passed away really quick last night. I was reading all this and went to check on him. He was laying on his side and couldn't stand. I brought him in the house and he died around 1:30 this morning. His brother is fine and has no diarrhea. We have looked at a couple stores for the dimethox and...
I just got two new boys. They are both buckling, even though one is supposed to be a wether. We have only had them for one week and one of them is sick already. I believe he may have coccidiosis. They gave him Corid to prevent it, but I have heard Corid is not very effective. He is due for...
This is all good information. I am so happy you brought these two in!!!!! I'm sure they are also happy to have a new 'mom'. You are doing so well with them from what I can see here. They do need the CDT shot if the one is eating dirt especially. You can have free choice hay for the older one now...
This is just out of curiosity. If there is another reason why you are on here feel free to respond in a message. Also I didn't know where to put this so I put t under all herds and other if that's okay. Also make sure you mark as many as you need. Thanks
I might say give her minerals, but you might want to wait for another response first because I don't have a lot of experience with this. Also there is a possibility of worms, but if she seems to be eating okay and such. Also mites and lice are possible as well, but again wait for another...
This is good advice. Sorry I didn't realize it was sheep. Smacking him in with a solid hit could put him in his place. Also make sure your son isn't accidently 'fighting back' you or him might not realize, but if he pushes the buck away especially on the head, the buck may think it is turning...
How old is the wether? How old is your son? How does your son act with the goats? My only thought is he could either be trying to play or being semi protective if he thinks your son is a 'threat' because of how active he is. Just a thought. I don't know though. How do the girls act with them...
