Hello Kim,
Did you take her temperature? As for the pain shots, what medications are you using and how much? It would probably serve you best to go to our Goat911 feeature and call one of the people on the list or you can call me directly at (417) 443-7625 (Gary). There's a number of things this condition could be but it is a good sign that she is still eating and drinking a little. There is also going to be a flurry of questions about this - when was the last time you wormed her and with what type of wormer...what kind of medications have you given her in the last x number of days... Was she subjected to roughplay and butting by any of the other goats... her temperature... can you hear a kid(s) inside her...is there any movement? What you have been feeding her in the last x number of days...what else could she have eaten in the last x number of days?
Best regards,
Gary Pfalzbot
