green discharge in goat

[caninestc]

My matriarch goat has a green discharge and looks like her teats and bag are filling up there is no possible way she is pregnant suspect it may be vaginal infection what antibiotic should I use

Only a few antibiotics can be gotten over the counter now. You can try one. I probably would try penicillin first. A vet would be helpful in diagnosing the problem initially, and helping you use the correct one.

Are there ANY male goats anywhere near by? I have had people "swear" their goat can't be pregnant because the male goat is on the other side of the fence so unless there are absolutely NO intact males on the property, I would have a vet check for pregnancy. Where there is a will, there is a way. Where is the discharge coming from? Her vulva or her teats? You definitely need a vet.

Heat should not cause a greenish yellow discharge. That is the color of pus. Call the vet.

And you're telling me why? It was just a suggestion. Didn't say I had the answer.

Not telling you, informing the OP so they don’t delay treatment and loose the goat.

The OP posted back in May. The tag on post at the beginning of October. Neither has returned since to this post, so more information could be obtained. Hopefully they both contacted a vet as they should have.
