She is down but still able to hold her head up Temp running about 101 and she has diarrhea , also 3 days of corrid

Ment to add HELP!

 

[NigerianDwarfOwner707]

Symptoms? If she has polio she must be taken off of corid immedately.

Started she was hanging back. Came home she was flat out in barn head back couldn't stand. Brought her in house. 3-4 days I did penicillin thiamine 4 times a day she was eating doin almost good. Ran out of thiamine went to vet he said take her off penicillin put her on nuflor he did fecal showed coccidiosis. As my eyes rolled he gave her corrid. 2 days later on vet meds she is worse. I gave her baycox red cell trying to give electrolytes(as much as she can) she sits up when propped. I also did beer and baking soda yesterday She has diarrhea

Baycox was a good idea. Stop all Corid immediately and buy Vitamin B Complex from the store ASAP and give 5cc of it.

As I am out of the thiamine again! She is back on the complex as of today Do you know any m

 

[toth boer goats]

All good advice, I would get a vet involved, a lot going on with this goat all at once.

 

[NigerianDwarfOwner707]

How much Nuflor has she gotten? How many days?

B complex, if 100mg thiamine on the back, give 5cc of it every 6 hours

 

[happybleats]

I would also get her temp. 101.5-103.5 is normal range.
How long has she been down?
What does her poop look like.
Check her lower inner lids for color
Is she getting fluids?
What foods is she eating currently?

 

[Carl47]

12-5 ivermectin 1ml 12-15 iverm.1ml

Did fecal showed coccidiosis he gave nuflor30mg once daily thiamine 50mg 1ml twice daily @ 13 ml a day for 3 days.temp at 101-103. Also he said switch to cydexin after the corrid.

[NigerianDwarfOwner707]

Did she receive corid? How much? When?

She needs at least 500mg thiamine every 6 hours round the clock. If you have b complex check what the back says, most is 100mg/ml so I would give 5cc of it. Again, every 6 hours round the clock.

Poor thing has had so many meds.

This vet....:imsorry:

 

[Carl47]

The thiamine is 500mg (I'm out)
Vitamin b12 complex is 10g(thiamine)
I am giving the complex 4tes a day now she ate a bowl of grass but w no rumen sounds or chewing cud I'm afraid of bloat

Post the label of your vitamin B. If it only has 10g you must go out and buy some fortified b complex (not b12) that is stronger.

 

[Carl47]

Duret high level vitamin B complex injectable sterile solution thiamine hydrochloride 100 mg riboflavin (b12)5mg niacinamide 100mg pyridoxine hydrochloride (b6) 10 mg d-pathenol 10 mg cyanocobalamin 100mg

Perfect. Give 5cc every 6 hours.

Any other tricks to restart rumen?

Any other tricks to restart rumen?

You have done what you need to with cud transfer, beer, etc. right now she just needs a break from chemicals, vitamins, continued probiotic support, and time.

 

[toth boer goats]

Good advice by all.

I would give 12 cc’s of fortified vit b complex.
Overdosing is OK, they will pee out what they don’t need.


Massage left side of tummy (rumen). Walk the goat, no grain just hay.

ruminant probiotics or cud transfer.

 

[happybleats]

Also, Bring in hay, alfalfa, leaves..pine, cedar, vines...any safe natural browse you can gather. The more choices she has the better chance of her eating and getting her rumen going.
