Have a pregnant doe she is due 3-20-2022
We found liver fluke, tape worm and hook worm in our small herd and I'm trying to figure out how or when to dose her with Valbabzen. I'm not drinking her milk and she's not for slaughter. So can I still dose her? If not how long do I need to wait before I can dose her.

Wait till after she kids. Never give Valbazen to a pregnant doe.

How long after? And will it be safe for the kids? Drinking her milk? I dam raise.

I always wait a few (3-5) days before worming to make sure there are no other issues but some folks worm the next day. Valbazen hurts the unborn not mom. I dam and bottle depending on the situation but never had a problem post delivery.

With liver fluke involved I would deworm her right after she kids. Valbazen is safe for nursing kids. 1 cc per 10 pounds. Booster in 10 days.
