Sorry i should specify we use Vitamin B-12 Complex, so it has Thiamine, etc in it.

I give the Goat Vac that we can get from Tractor Supply.

View attachment 32466

We give to the does a month before kidding. We usually give to our kids when they are 6-8 weeks old. We aren't exact about everything.
We give the yearlings and the bucks their boosters in the spring about the same time we are giving the others.
We give ours sub q behind the shoulder. After you give the injection you need to rub the skin at the site. That avoids lumps, but sometimes we may get one the size of a pea.

We give BoSe injections. We give ours about a month before the kid I believe. I've never heard anything about that being a problem.
I think some people give a month before breeding.
We give B-12 when needed.
We also keep Thaimine, we've given that to kids who seemed weak.

Our TSC only stocks the Bar-Vac....hence why we use it

Oh no! thats terrible! Morgan

the lump shouldnt be to big because your only giving 1cc,

Pretty sure the dosage for CDT is 2cc regardless of the size of the animal.

The pneumonia vaccine is this one.

I have read good things about the Bovi Sera but never tried it and have not heard of the Replamin Gel. When a person owns 40 goats you start to get the herd mentality and find what works with the least amount of time. If I can feed it to them, like minerals, then I am all over it. If I have to hands on, like copper bolus, then I look for another way. I am thinking of trying minerals from Advanced Biological Concepts as I can buy minerals individually so they get more of what I am sure they need; mainly copper and selenium.

Sorry your right!! Good thing i read the label everytime before i give anything! I must have been thinking of Pen G or something cause i was thinking 1cc per 100lbs....but thats not for CDT
