Urgent need of help with goat constipation

[therealestchicken]

My goat seems constipated and can’t pass stool she is kinda crouched over when she stands and can’t stand up very long what do I do for her she’s very uncomfortable but not making sounds

Without seeing the goat it is difficult to have an opinion. If it was my goat I would immediately give her a dose of clostridium perfingens antitoxin. She may have enterotoxemia. If she does, you don't have much time. Another possibility is polio. Thiamin is used to treat that. If she has entero the antitoxin will cure her. If she doesn't it won't hurt her.

Selenium deficiency, white muscle, is something else to consider.
