Her vet does not know much about goats. She told her last night after giving her a shot of steroids and antibiotic..to let her alone for the night and see what happens. Her vet did not even recognise the bloat??? Hello!! She should of in the least caught the bloat and treated. But she...

Personally..Im not a fan of oral drench. If I can inject it and get the same result...its the way I go.!! And its aspiration that I always worry about. Its always quicker and easier on the goat in my expirence to inject it. A quick shot rather than trying to shove something down the goat...

Do you think she aspirated the calcium by chance???? If so...that may be a totally differant ball of wax. Where the only thing I would know to do is as Kate said...Antibiotics and trying to get her to cough whats filling in her lungs. I have no idea what the calcium would do to her lungs. Im...

I would try to get her up and walking...if she cant not make sure she dos'nt lie flat..and massage that rumen...its important..you wanna mix that oil and baking soda around the liquid in the rumen. And help her to start belching that gas out...

Start to treat now...give her 6-8 oz of vegtable oil ..then baking soda and water. While he's going to the store. I would start with veg and then baking soda and water. And if shes not belching or nothing seems to be moving give her M of Mag.

Do you have milk of magnesia by chance????? Also Tide (powered) laundry detergent 3cc powder to 30cc water mix well. Vegetable oil (6-8 oz for an adult) or, mix baking soda with water and use as a drench. I would try vegtable oil / milk of mag 1st...but you dont wanna just layer..more...

Milk of Magnesia will help break up the froth in the rumen...but I know the vets have medicine that will break up that froth.

Sounds like bloat...you need to massage that rumen...get some baking soda in that rumen and neutralize it. Im glad the vet is on her way...hope she dos'nt live to far. :fl It can be very serious if you dont get treatment in her right away. They can go in hours if bloated like that. If she...

Tractor supply should carry them?? Any feed stores around?? They should have em. You can also call a small animal vet..they would have them. You would just need to ask if they would be nice enough to let you buy a box off them. Tell em your situation?? They may help. You probally could...
