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. Can I treat him with it without bothering for a vet for confirmation? Will it hurt him to just treat for it? And my vet says that coccidiosis is caused by dirty surroundings. The barn is claened once a day! Could something else be causing it? Also, he loooves to eat. Can he over eat? By nighttime he gets rounder but then by morning he is fine again. Should I be worried about bloat?
