I recently got some fecal results back and one of my 6 month old goats has a heavy load of coccidia (no signs of coccidiosis though) and high number of strongyle eggs. Another of my 6 month olds has some tapeworm eggs as well.

I am planning to do a 5 day Corid drench on the one with high cocci, but wasn't sure if I can worm her at the same time or if I need to wait until after Corid treatment. Also wasn't sure of the best wormer for what they have- ivermectin?

I'm still fairly new to goats so any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

Yes you can do both. Ivomec will work for stongyle but not the tape worm. You can get Equamax for horses which treat both. Dose is 3 x the horse dose...so if the girls weigh 50 pounds..dose as if 150 pounds.
Be sure to follow corid instructions in the medicine file here on TGS.

Yes, you sure can.
It is best to do treatment for both right away so the goat doesn’t get worse.
