How soon can I give newborn a dose of .toltrazuril? Pinky's new baby now has very runny watery and kind of bubbly poop.

 

[erica4481]

The baby is 3 days old and is being dam raised.

I'm going to get the cd antitoxin from feed store. What's the dosage?

 

[erica4481]

Get the Neomycin while you are at it.

Does it come in a bottle or what? The people at the feed store have been known to sell me the wrong stuff. Just want to make sure I get the right stuff

 

[erica4481]

Ok I went everywhere in 3 county's to try to find the cd antitoxin no one has it and everyone tried to sell me cdt. Tsc carries it but didn't have any. But i did get the neomycin.

 

[erica4481]

Do I give the neo. Straight out of bottle ? It says something about mixing with water.

 

[erica4481]

Baby only weighs a couple pounds

 

[erica4481]

Actually 3.1 lbs to be exact

straight from the bottle..: )
I have to order cd antitoxin..cant find it around here either..

I think I would give 1 1/2 cc per day for that tiny girl...broke up in two doses...

It's so frustrating trying to find things for goats. The people around here just look at me like I'm crazy. I called to get an app. At the vets office to get 2 of my bucklings disbudded nd they act like they never even heard of it.

Ok we'll I already gave 1 cc so tomorrow I will give 1 1/2 broke in 2 doses.

Lol

I'm confused. This morning the baby had very watery poop. Now it hasn't pooped since.

 

[erica4481]

No belly is still sunk in and still nursing from mom.

 

[erica4481]

I would follow her around a bit..try to catch her pooping..
How is she acting other wise? Head up or down, tail tucked or up? lethargic? depressed? or playful? bouncing with others?

He is acting normal. He is the smallest baby I've ever had.he is just tiny and still a little wobbly he sleeps alot but wakes up to see me when I go in and nurses from mom. Head is up when he's awake,tails up, not lethargic really or depressed. A little playful . Not quite bouncing around yet. I cleaned all the runny poop off this morning with warm water and trimmed all the hair from around his tail. No signs whatsoever of scours now. I put clean hay in for them to lay on this am also. Yesterday I was finding his poop in the hay and now I can't find any signs of poop from him. Do some mama goats eat the baby's poop?is it possible that she is eating it and that's why i can't find any. That's the only thing I can think of other than he's not pooping at all.

 

[erica4481]

Sorry pics are upside down just wanted to give you an idea of how sunk in his tummy is and a couple cute pics too

 

[erica4481]

yes some moms do eat the poop. But if you arent seeing any pooping from him and you are watching like a hawk then I would try a little enema to see if he has a blockage

I've been checking in atleast every hour and sitting with him for a few mins each time. Yesterday he was pooping just about every time I was out there. I know the poop is usually a little messy and sticky the first few days and it was like that yesterday but this am it was like water and bubbly .now absolutely no signs at all. I looked every where and dug around in the hay and found nothing.

 

[erica4481]

an enema certainly wont hurt...I use oil and warm water...use a syringe and go slow..be gentle and message tummy...

Ok how many cc do I squirt in?

 

[erica4481]

Baby is doing great today. I gave the enema last night . He pooped and is pooping normal today. He is up bouncing and running around and having a good time playing. thanks for the help

 

[erica4481]

Should I continue the neomycin today?

 

[erica4481]

Ok
