Pregnant doe has scours

So her poop has been abnormal for like 5 days to a week. She is due in a couple weeks and I fear this may have a negative impact on the kid. At first it started as like dog poop but about two days ago it turned to pure liquid. They were dewormed at the beginning of the month along with getting a CDT and some selenium. The other goat has completely normal poop and is due whenever she feels it's time( hopefully this weekend ). I think it is caused from the feed but can't get it to stop. At the beginning of this I started increasing her grain from about a handful to a cup of grain. When she started acting up I cut the grain down to 1/2 c. That didn't help so I got rid of it completely. She also got a new hay at the same time. This stuff is greener than the last batch. What should I do?

you can give her a syringed pack of gelatin/jello (just add enough water to get into liquid enough to syringe) and give orally. Should slow down the scours, if it is really bad and she is dehydrated you might want to give her some electrolites too. Keep us posted!

I did that thing where you pinch the skin up and I don't think she is dehydrated. Seemed to snap down pretty quick. The other goat was a little better. I'll try your idea and see if it helps. Thanks!
