She's doing so much better! The vet was shocked she was doing so Well! He said she may need a booster shot in 4-7 days he also said to bring all 3 kods5on at 6 weeks old for cd&t shots I asked him about how much she should be eating now but he didn't give me an answer so I'm just going to wing...
Back to the vet we go :) I can tell she has gained some weight I'm vetting she weighs about 6 pounds now! Hopefully this second shot of antibiotic will clear her right on up. She has came leaps and bounds from where we were! I'm also going to ask him about a cd&t shot for her and the other 2...
So we have had a great day! Full of life and energy.... I've noticed this evening she has soft poops it's not watery or runny just soft could this be the antibiotics fault? Or do I need to be concerned about scours?
Back to our normal kid self this morning eating up a storm and playing like crazy I'm trying to keep her from over doing it but she's wide open lol!!! This mommas heart is so happy today:weee:celebrate
I just want to say thank you all sooooooo very much for all of the great info and y'all taking time out of your busy days to talk to me!! I ended up taking baby girl to the vet she has joint ill as I feared :( he diloldn't really explain much he just gave her a shot she only weighs 4.8 pounds at...
Quick update this am, I ended up making the hole in one of her nipple just a little bigger and she seems to nurse easier without taking breaks and she's actually eating more? So I think she was getting tired before she was getting full. I had my hubs help me re splint her leg she kept pulling it...
Oh what your seeing on the feeding chart it means day 11 through the weaning process lol I had to look at it twice cause I was like no way do they wean at 11 days old lol they need to better word it but I don't trust the instructions for most stuff like this with some research from actual people...
It does drip without me cutting any of the nipple that's why I was afraid to :) and every once in a while she will bump not very often though. But she acts like she is starving today she has ate 6 ounces since 5.30 this morning it's only 9.20 here now so I'm thinking maybe the 2-3 oz she has...
Adding photos of the replacer I'm using just in case and she doesn't sound stuffy this morning yay! She's still a lil runny but I'll take what I can get :)
Ok so after sifting through the above links I'm wondering if I should just transition her to the milk we drink? It's whole milk with vit D? Also I didn't cut an x into the baby bottle nipple because I didn't want to "drown" her with the milk she eats 2-3 oz per feeding usually every 5 hours...
It is a uni replacer made by manna pro They didnt have just kid replacer and I just went by the instructions on the bag for pygmy/small breeds of goats and fixed it for her..I was completely out of milk from the mom :( I have a feeling this is a bad thing? :hide
Also we have her on a milk replacer just started her on it last night I hope it's ok I've read mixed info on it but I was desperate because I can't milk either of my mommas with a strong person to help hold them they are not fans of being milked lol
No I'm not currently you going to give her anything I did however splint it a little bit ago just to try and help her she had been running and jumping alot so I'm thinking that maybe she has what I seen called a green tree fracture? It said it was fairly common in young kids? If it's not better...

Thank You! I had a bottle baby give to me about 13 years ago, I had no clue what I was doing with the baby an didn't know anyone that raised them.the lady I got him from was an older lady that was just going to let him die since the mom would take care of him. I couldn't handle it so I brought...
Oh okay awesome thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions :) I really hope she pulls through this mess! I'm just happy she has no fever still lol! I will keep watching her closely and if she's not doing any better by Tuesday I will go ahead and take her in just to be safe...
Oh ok thank you so much! So probably the best thing will be to just take her to the vet then? Will they write prescriptions for thing I need to keep on hand for them if I ask lol I know I sound dumb bit I've never been to a vets office
Oh man :( I did dip her cord in iodine because if was 12 inches long I had to cut it so she would stop getting it wrapped around her feet I sterilized the scissor first though. Can you get the bo-se over the counter like at tsc? And I read somewhere that some ppl use vet rx for the nose?
