Depression in a month old goat

[Sandy christen]

I don't know if any one can help me or not looking for answers.. Well I had 2 month old goats well yesterday we lost one and now the other one is acting funny he's got his tail hung low and he's just not himself took his temp it's normal don't know what to do..... He's not his spunky self I want to do something but just don't know what.... His buddy was his best friend and now he's not with him anymore....

He is probably missing his buddy. I would go and get him other baby goat, or even a full grown doe. Does he seem lethargic?

 

[Sandy christen]

Tail down. Mopping.. Kind of lethargic... But eating drinking and we put 2 new kids in with him but there head buttin....

 

[TAH]

Is he the brother to the kid that died? They will figure out the pecking order.

 

[TAH]

Did he get colostrum? How old is he?

 

[Sandy christen]

No I went and got 2 new ones &anything I can do for hm

1 month old

1 month old

Okay so he is older. I would give him some
A drizzle of molasses
1 cup of warm water or milk
1egg
And mix it all together. He must of gotten colostrum or he would most likely would of had problems a while ago. I would say he is just depressed that he lost his buddy. Hope he improves and get Well soon.
