    chick probiotics question

    that sounds like a good idea about the dirt! my main concern for probiotics were for gut health and coccidia prevention, because I lost nearly all my poults to it last year. I think I'll try a probiotic I can add to their water this year and not risk anything with the goat probiotics. just as an...

    Help! Watery scours in baby goats!

    I think we will try the formula for a while longer, but will definitely bring up the whole milk thing to him. I will try the formula probably for a week, while keeping a close eye on them, and being exact with the feedings. I'm thinking maybe we were feeding too much with the cows milk, which...

    Help! Watery scours in baby goats!

    They were drinking close to 10 oz of formula before the scours. And they were getting it at 6:30 am, 1:00 pm, and 6-7 pm. Is this still too much?

    They're an alpine mix, so they're pretty big, but not big like meat goats.

    Well, they're very active this morning, but extremely upset about their electrolyte only breakfast. They each got close to 5 oz of Pedialyte. I'm going to get my sister to give them some more around 10 because I have to leave. Let me know if there's anything else we should be doing!

    They are not bloated anymore! I have no idea what changed other than them walking around a bit and taking a nap. They haven't pooped in a while, but they are very tired, and as am I. So I will start tomorrow with only electrolytes for their diet and slowly try again with formula. And I'll make...

    Our vet told us to stop using whole milk. but I'll bring up the issues we've been having with the replacer and see what he says.

    Help! Watery scours in baby goats!

    Thank you!!💕 I think I maybe have done all my transitions way too fast. They went from mom, to whole milk, to formula in all less than a week. I've been giving them some probiotics that are also supposed to help with stress, but I'll keep you updated on how they come along over the next week. We...

    Help! Watery scours in baby goats!

    So one thing I noticed when reading is that my babies are grinding their teeth quite a bit. Is there anything I can do to make them more comfortable while I try and figure this out?
