1mo. old bottle buckling w/ runny diarrhea *URGENT** Good and bad news

[20kidsonhill]

about 2 to 3cc of the scour guard, twice a day, squirt it in to the back of the mouth with a 3cc syringe(no needle) or some kind of dropper.

?Edited: Posted at same time of Roll, Her suggestions sound like a good plan. Good luck with him.

I bought the gel tube, it was the first thing with the word probios on it that I found and I got the 60gm tube.

Am I supposed to give all of this to him at once, he hasn't had his bottle for the evening.

Easiest way to get it done is all at once.

How long and how often am I supposed to give him these?

Since I'm not sure what protocol you've decided to follow since you were given several different ideas...can you let us know what meds / supportive therapy you plan to administer?

Right now I have given him Pedialye instead of his bottle, the ScourGaurd, and the Probios.

I did buy some Penn G, I haven't given him any yet though. I still need to get gelatin also.

After the last question..
Is there anything I should add to this?

Probios - entire time you are medicating + one day

Pedialyte / gelatin - until scours stops + one day

PenG - 2x daily for at least 7 days

ScourGuard - until scours stop + one treatment

Now he has little black bugs all over him...

How do I get rid of those?

None of my other goats have had any of these problems. Not even the ones I had when I was little..

Here's some info on external parasites for you.

I actually had to give him a bath(from the runny poo), so after I did the bugs reduced by a LOT!!.

His poo isn't as runny but it still isn't what it should be..

Progress.
