no shes not better (
the same actually
I tried that medicine for 2 weeks and see no improvement.... finished it yesterday.
And I havent seen the zoomies in 2 weeks either. Im not doing anything now... no creams, lotions, shots, suppliments...
I think her behavior was best when she was on the dex. The only time she is some what animated is at feeding time. Most the time she just stands around.
She is getting that hard crustiness around her mouth and nose again. I imagine it will start pealing off like it did before.

i remeber a lady , once that raised boer goats had a young kid approx the same age as your kid , it had the same type issues i asked her what the deal with the little goat was and she told me '' just mites'' she acted as if it wasnt an issue but to me it looked odd, she said it had happend before and she rubbed it with some kinda mite dip, and months later the hair started fill in hope this helps.

hi thanks for your thoughts.
I wish this was only mites.
this is a skin autoimmune problem that she was born with. She is not likely to get better.

Well here is another little update.
Little Black Betty is back on dex.
this time we are increasing the dosage for 10 days.
Its kind of our last attempt to fix this.
The vet even said, that if this dosnt work, to consider......
(the E word)
