Yes to plenty of fiber, hay/forage...yes, we've seen her drinking yesterday and today. The goats are able to access their own pen without the horses where they have hay and water, plus she's free to go out and forage, which she does. The horses' feed is not left out - they eat it and we remove the buckets.Is she getting fiber, hay/forage, in her diet? Is she drinking plenty of water? Are the horses keeping her away from the hay and water or is she timid of the horses and isn't going to eat or drink? Is she getting into the feed put out for the horses?
I thought so, but she's back to being constipated again. Another enema or MOM?Sounds like you are resolving the problem.
I have them, but I just did the rumen cap so I haven't done the probiotics yet. It's a lot of drenching...I'd do both. Are you giving her probiotics as well?
Can I give the probiotics in the same drench as the MOM?I have them, but I just did the rumen cap so I haven't done the probiotics yet. It's a lot of drenching...
What usually causes constipation?
Even an adult? And we see her drink...Not enough water can cause it, dehydration.
Very good advice given by all.
And does that mean I should drench her with water and/or electrolytes?Not enough water can cause it, dehydration.
Very good advice given by all.
I wouldn't, you never know how two different substances could possibly interact when given together.Can I give the probiotics in the same drench as the MOM?
