OHHHH, I think I understand now.ksalvagno said:I second the Bose shot. It is selenium. For full size goats, I use 1/2 cc though. I would also watch them closely and make sure she is nursing. I would get that BoSe shot in her ASAP. I have seen miraculous things with just giving a BoSe shot.
I read some other threads here and got confused as well. I should get plenty of sleep before I dose anything, but that doeling needed help today.
I thought you meant 1/2 cc for KIDS of full size goats. I don't know why I read it that way ... probably because of the recommendations on another thread here. I was thinking it was 1/4 cc for Nigi kids and 1/2 cc for big kids.
So .15 cc wasn't that small a dose. Probably reasonably careful with her, since she's only 5 pounds. I think it's double the lamb rate (not that lamb doses are anything to calculate kid doses, but that's what the vet was trying to do).
It's almost 7pm. Everyone's in the barn for the night. I think I'll do one more check, eat dinner,a nd get some real sleep.
After the kids were born, I finally relaxed and zonked out last night, but ... then I woke up at 1 am and couldn't go back to sleep. Guess I'm too used to being up, LOL.
Thanks again.
