3.5 week kid. He walks with his head tilted to one side, like he has water in his ear. He seems able to walk ok and nurses. Could this be goat polio? Symptoms just started today. It has been raining here for several days. No recent feed changes. No other goats with symptoms. His twin brother seems fine.

Start with a shot of thiamine or b complex to equal 5oo mg of thiamine.
Check his ears and body for ticks

Glad he has improved, did you give a thiamine shot?
