Nubian that won't get up

My thought as well Pam...!!

Start treatment ASAP...be agressive!
Ifyou have white tail deer:
Meningeal worm needs Safguard at 1 cc per 7# orally and Ivomec plus , 1 cc per 40# sub Q and either Dex or banamine..

Polio/ listeriosis is Thiamine and Penicillin per the chart onthis link

Yes we have deer that run our big fields. Not been out there for a month. She has been with billy since middle of October. She acts normal just won't stand up trys to get front end up but not rear. Will stand once we stand her up

sounds more like the Meningeal worm...starts witht he back leg....Start treatment now...dont wait..the sooner you start the better her recovery chances are..
here is one of the best articles I found on MW

You need to start M worm treatment like yesterday. Get liquid Safeguard and give her 1cc per 7 lbs for 5 days in a row and get Ivomec Plus and dose at 1cc per 40 lbs. Read the above links posted.

Incubation for M worm is 60 days so she would have ingested it 2 months ago.

I owuld also watch the rest of your herd as well...look for a slight drunken gait, a crossing of theback leg when walking..any weakness at all, start treatment...

I have cydectin on hand can I use it or iveromec plus.

You can use Cydectin. Needs to be given by injection so hopefully you have the injectable kind. If it is oral, don't give that by injection.

How common is this worm I have never heard of it

This seems to be a very bad year for it but it is common anywhere that there is white tail deer.

I do have the injectable kind

I don't know what the dosage is for Cydectin but whatever the normal dosage is for goats is what you use.

the reason many choose Ivomec plus is to cover the bases better since IV Plus gets liver fluke...which is also carried by snails...I would choose it over Cydectin...

Ok I will get some tomorrow morning. Should I also treat her for polio to

it wouldnt hurt to treat her with thiamine...
If all you have is cydectin then start with that...but the Safe guard is the most important wormer to start ASAP...Also Banamine or dex ...

If I wanted to treat my herd just be safe what should I do

One last question if I can't find liquid safe guard is horse paste safe guard ok.

Yes but do like 4 to 5 times the horse dosage.

Prevention is Ivomec monthly so most people don't do that.

I did use ivomec plus but my vet said cydectin was better so I switched. I will be switching back
