Chicos Mama
Chillin' with the herd
Time for an update:
"Miss Doe-Rita" is such an amazingly resiliant Nanny! And is progressing nicely! As of today, No mater which angle I looked at her, I could not see one single rib bone!!!!
(now about those hip bones and spine...)
Inch by Inch, Calorie by Calorie...she`s gonna get there!
I did take into concideration the Zinc and Vit. A defecency therories but with all the supplements she is getting:
Black oil sunflower seeds, Free fed Loose Mineral, Iodine supplement, Vit. A-D-E ( from molly`s) spinkled on her grain daily, Pro-biotics daily, Calf-Mana, Free fed 2nd cut Alfalpha ( not from Arizona, they truck it in from Colorado) Also a good Timothy Hay also from Colorado....and LOTS OF KISSES
....
I think im just Im going to wait and see what time will tell as her hair grows back in.
Seems like an awful lot of Vitamins and Oil & Fat goodies in all of that stuff! She should be big as a house in no time!
I did however take a "baby brush", you know, the really soft bristled ones? And dipped it in Pure Aloe Vera gel and went to scrubbin`! Small circular motions all over her and she was actually moaning with delight! I decided to do this every other day as to not make her raw and see if this helps her skin. She doesnt seem to care if Im helping her or not...all she knows is that it sure feels gooooodd!!
She never did get any ozzy sores or scabs on her, it was just really gross scaly and super flaky skin...like a very bad case of dandruff...Goat sized!
Now if I could just get "Violet" my other girl to quit bullying her, "Doe-Rita" is a very old yet "seasoned" old gal and something tells me as she gets stronger and healthier, shes going to put Violet in check! We shall see!
Thanks again everyone for your ideas and help more pictures as we go!
