Do you think mashing up pills is more effective than just giving her the gel that I already have? And if I were to do the pills, how much exactly is "a bunch of" vitamin E tablets?
If I cannot get a fecal, right now do you think it would be ok if I did your recommended treatment using safeguard and then powdered her for lice? I took all your other info into thought.
Thanks for all the help. I'm really stressed right now...
I can feel a little bit of udder development, I think. I'm working on getting some pictures.
The earliest possible date is Jan 28. so does that mean i should give her the vaccine and BoSe now? I have CD&T vaccine but I don't have any BoSe. Where do I get BoSe? I have selenium and vitamin E gel...
I'm not sure what to do about a fecal. I do not know of any vets around here that will do anything for goats. We have a few vets that only do dogs, cats, rodents, and other similar small animals ad then we have a couple strictly horse vets :/ .
I don't have experience with what that looks like. She has had a couple kids before we bought her, so her udders seem big anyways. With the new dates I posted above, she could be due as early as the 28 (28 days from now!) so if I post pictures will you be able to tell me if she'll probably due...
She is a purebred nubian and bred to another purebred nubian, so I will give grain in the last 6 weeks of pregnancy, thanks!
I wasn't specific enough on my plan, but I am already giving loose minerals, I guess I was just expressing the importance of having it during the pregnancy as well...
She needs to be wormed because right now she has light pink/pale gums, some soft poops, when I bought her she was on the thin side (though its hard to tell now because she is pregnant), and she seems to have lice or something and I heard Ivomec Plus gets rid of lice/fleas. If I shouldn't use...
Ok, so this may come as a shock to all you experts on here, but that's why I am on here. For the first time in my life, I own a pregnant doe. She will be kidding in March (but I dont know exactly when in March :/ ) so I want to make sure I have a good "plan" for prenatal care for my goat. Any...
A couple months ago I bought a bred nubian doe. Upon purchasing her I asked the seller what her due date was. He told me he didn't know off the top of his head but to email him and he'd find out. So when I got home I emailed him and his response was "Well, she should be due in March." :barnie...
If I'm going to worm my pregnant goat (she really needs it because I just bought her and I don't think her previous owners took very good care of her....) is Ivomec Plus safe to use on her?
Hello!
I am in the process of purchasing a wormer for my goats. I have one pregnant doe and three does that are not pregnant. I have safeguard for my pregnant doe, but I am not sure what to get for my other three. I wanted to use Ivomec Plus for the three, but the bottle says the wormer is only...
Hello!
I need to give my goats their CD&T vaccination, so at our 4h meeting, I had the dairy goat leader circle what we needed to buy in a magazine. Upon looking closer I see that they circled something called: Clostridium Perfringens types C & D Antitoxin, rather than the CD&T vaccination. I...
