Bad mix

[Clukcluks]

I have one of my reds that is not feeling well this morning. I may be at fault for her symptoms. I prepared a spicy mix of oregano, garlic, chili flakes, and parsley, and some sage leaf. I think it made her sick. All my other girls are unaffected by it. What can I do for her??

Sick how? Symptom? Photos?

Wattle? Tail? Waddling? Croaky? Not walking?

Not eating?

How did you give the herbs?

What are her symptoms? Is she eating or drinking? What were the herbs given for?

She's not as perky as usual. She doesn't want to drink, eat or walk. Poopy vent It's only been 4hrs since she woke up and came out to the run. When I went out I saw her just squatting down that's when I noticed her very lethargic. She's very hard to catch and I just reached down and picked her up. Very unusual.

I thought I would be open to prevention of worms etc. Roosty's talks alot about prevention of parasites. I tried making my own.

Worms are best treated with a proven dewormer such as Valbazen or SafeGuard Liquid Goat Wormer. I can give a dosage. Herbs will not kill worms. Her comb looks pale. Has she ever started laying yet, or not? At 18 weeks, it might not be time yet. I would fell of her crop to see if it is empty and flat, full, firm, or squishy? Check it first thing in the morning to see if it has emptied overnight. Look her over for lice or mites under her vent, belly, and elsewhere on her skin. If you see any droppings, a picture might be good. Is her tail position up or down?
