Overrun with beasties
All 5 of my goats got their CD-T vaccines done almost 3 weeks ago.
No reactions, everyone has been acting normal.
I am still new to goats and this was my first time with injections so I had my friend who is a vet tech do them SQ while I held my goats and watched. She decided to do all right hind legs. Which now I know I should have insisted she do the shoulder/armpit area. But what do I know?
So now today I feel like a horrible goat keeper because I just noticed my 2 month old doeling has what I am guessing after looking online, is an injection site abscess, on her right rear leg. She is acting normal, playing, eating, bright eyed, not even limping at all...
*I took a photo after I put betadine on it so it looks bloody and worst but it was not bleeding, just open and raw.*
Can anyone confirm this is what it is? Should I just keep an eye on it and keep it clean and keep putting betadine on it? Antibiotics would just null and void the CD-T right? They are all due to get the booster done this Wednesday, should I have my friend do them in the correct area now?
Thank you
