Our little baby is sick today. Found her with a poopy butt this morning. Took her to the vet. Temp is 105, dehydrated. Vet says no parasites, so he gave her BoSe, Vitamin A & D, Sub Cu fluids, and sent me home with injectable antibiotics and probiotic paste.

I cam home and held her for about an hour to keep her warm. Fever is down to 104.2, and she is cuddled up with her mama now.

She's a little better today - no poopy butt, and she's at least up and standing in the sunshine.

I'm glad I took her to the vet as quickly as I did. I think we caught it in time. Her lungs are good, and she's still nursing.

Glad she is getting better. A little scour halt (spectomycin, also called scour check) may help the poops.

Temp is down to 102.7 today. She still is not acting like she is sick at all. She's nursing well, and trying to eat hay and grain. Other than she's even more snuggly than usual - I think she might be a little cold - you can't tell she's sick.
