coccidiosis

Let me preface by saying before I bought a pregnant goat I found a vet that said they did goat care. Now I called the vet and they can’t offer services. And I’m having trouble finding anyone that can help locally. I have a 10 day old baby that has been nursing off mom and has seemed...

My young buckling(5 months) has been having Diarrhea for the past 5 days now. I thought he was scouring but even after giving him just hay and mineral, it hasn't changed. Its like a pudding consistency. I've only had Kikos for about 2 1/2years now. Never had an issue with Coccidiosis but now I...

We've had healthy goats for 4 years, but we lost one last week that was losing weight and had diarrhea:( I hadn't thought of coccidiosis, so I dewormed him and used nutridrench and electrolytes. He was always underweight since we bought him, and the other two bucks that lived with have seemed...

Hi folks! I put this here has a half rant to myself and lamentation. So Sugar will be seven months in October. We lined up a buck to purchase based on her weight numbers from early this month however, I believe I did not measure her correctly. Instead of being almost 80 lbs, she is only 72...

Hi everyone, We are brand new to owning goats and as it's a holiday, I can't get a vet out to take a look at our two goats that we just brought home last Saturday. They are almost 6 month old half sisters that were recently tested and declared free of CAE and Johnes. They were also last...

I have a 5 month old Nigerian doeling has had diarrhea over a week. Vet confirmed cocci and strongyles in stool. Friday started 5-day Corid and was treated with Ivermectin. Diarrhea is now worse, she has went off feed and temp is 104.5. The diarrhea is very runny and has lots of bubbles. She...

Ok one little Pygmy died this morning from coccidia and anotheris fighting it. We got the proper meds from the vet and I’ve also been giving 10-20cc of goat electrolyte every few hours throughout the day. He cannot lift his head or walk, but temp has improved from 101.8–102.5. His poops have...

Hi My name is Bryan, I live and N. Calif and have found our Nigerian Dwarfs to be wonderful animals. My wife and I are hobby ranchers, for the last 4 years, and knew NOTHING about goats prior to that. We have about 10 Nigies, and they have become pets, Along with everyone else here...;-) We...

I am looking for help on treating lambs that were purchased and have diarrhe. I posted on a different thread, somewhat random info, however two lambs that are brothers were purchased at an auction...apparently, were very sick before purchase, but looked great walking through the ring...clean...

I was just wondering what everyone thinks about giving their goats medicated goat feed to prevent coccidia? I have two 10 week old bucklings who were diagnosed with Coccidia and have been treated with Albon. Today will be their last dosage. I was wondering what everyone's luck is with using a...

I rescued three Nigerian Pygmy goats about a month ago and the girl (leia) was covered indexes and had a bad case of coccidiosis. I treated her for this and everything is going great! But now the little wether is showing similar signs. My vet gave me enough meds to clear it up for all of them...

Hi, we had Cocci run(literally) through our three 6-7 week old bottle babies. We treated with Dimethox, and used electrolytes and Arrest for the scours. Their last treatment was friday of last week, and two of the goats are completely back to normal berries, but the third is still scouring...
