Vitamin B Complex.... need help, please....

Any B-complex is fine to give him. I'd give him something like 3cc's IM or SQ.

 

Check the label and see what it says about B1 (thiamin)
You want it to say at least 100 mg/ml. Whenever I even suspect
a rumen isn't funtioning at full capacity, I give Probios and B1.
Fort. B complex will do for the B1 if you give enough. You want
to give enough to supply at least 500mgs of B1. So Pam's dose
would work.

Hope the Valbazen works for the worms. It sounds like you found
the main problem.

 

Hijacking this thread-sorry.
I am looking for the dose for the durvet high level vitamin B complex. Is it 6 cc's regardless of weight and age, or is there a dose per pound? I have a buckling that is depressed, not eating much at all and staying off by himself. He has already been wormed, nutri-drenched and has a normal temp. He has not been himself for about 4-5 days... He weighs 30 pounds and is 8 1/2 weeks old. The only other symptom he has is occasionally he hunches way up and brings his back legs up to front legs like he is straining to go to the bathroom. He has berries and is peeing just fine. He has also had his cd/t...

 

Would a paste be good to give them as well for a precaution/preventative upset on occasion? My one Nubian had polio and every now and then I can tell he is still off but I finished dosing him with thimaine injections. This happened a month ago

 

What would you recommend? Brand wise

 

We have given it orally, and it has helped that way as well. Not sure if that's normal to give it that way but we have tried it both ways with lambs and goats.

 

Good to know! The first one we always injected, and on any quite down animal injection is best. Some follow up we have done orally,... hmm have to rethink that. Is it that it gets absorbed too quickly orally? Or is it broke down quicker in the mouth?

I understood use of B12 as rumen starter and quick energy-at least that's how we have used it.

 

Great! Sheep and goats are different in some ways.
