Loving the herd life
Just went through this with 2 goat. One survived and one did not.
For a 50 ish lb Nigerian Dwarf.
40 cc / ml of Pepto every 4 hours.
In between my vet had me give him a slurry. This slurry was made of
40 cc of soda water (Mix soda water with this proportions 1 TBSP baking soda to 1/4 cup water)
40 cc of plain yogurt to get good bacteria build back up in the stomach.
I did this for 2 days. As soon as the poop stops being runny, stop the pepto. Too much Pepto, she said could cause him to get bound up.
All the water they want and good hay. No grain for a weak, then introduce it back slowly.
Like I said, I saved one but lost the other.
Hope this helps. Kate (Helmstead) should be along soon. She will have more info.
