Give CDT toxoid?

CD&T Booster should be 21 days after the first shot.
Get his temp ...check his famacha.

How much does he weigh and how much is he being fed...as well as what milk?

He is being fed milk replacer (ultra 24) about 20 ounces per day split between three feedings his temp is 102.2 and his lower eyelid is a pale pink he weighs about 15 pounds he also is getting worse about me touching his belly and instead of just kind of standing around he is sitting in a corner of the pen and doesn't really want to get up. I was only asking if I should give him the toxoid because he had the antitoxin only around a week ago and I don't know how long until it wears off and I was told that they will counteract with each other and the animal will die.

Oh..i miss read about the antitoxin. I thouggtbthey got their first cdT. The antitoxin stays in the system about 10 days. Some feel its safe to give the toxoid any time...but i would hold off until he is well. Not good to vaccinate when not feeling well.

For his tummy ache..i would stop reopacer...give his tummy some rest to digest. Feed electrolytes in place of replacer. You can give another cd antitoxin shot or a dose of Milk of magnesia to help if there is toxins builidng. He may have grown sensitive to the replacer so once he feels better i would switch to whole cows milk and see if he does better. A pinch of baking soda in first bottle and probiotics in his last.

Best wishes

Would just one shot help him fight it off if he has cdt or should I give him another shot of the antitoxin or toxoid?

If hes struggling in his gut..which sound like he is..a shot of b complex and cd Antitoxin is best. Not the toxoid. Then in 10 days or so..if hes feeling better you can vaccinate him if you choose.

@Crazy Goat Girl ...hows your little one doing?

I hope he’s feeling better this morning.

I just checked on him this morning he is back to his playful self again Thanks

I don't know if he was just sick to his stomach or what but he is better now

Might be a good idea to switch to whole milk as suggested above… just in case 😊

Glad things are better. 🤗
