JumpStart Gel would be better. It is used as part of the Fastrack Goat Program. |

You can use the probios for horses, it is impossible to overdose it is just natural digestive microbes. Give according to weight.

I found some probios says it a gel for horses. Is that ok? how much should I give. Also got some geritol will give that say you said. Also picked up some pro-lyte plus (Nutritional/Energy supplement) I keep drench her food until I see her eating hay and I will start antibotics 2x day. Thanks!

It can take a couple of weeks for her iron to come back up. You can give Geritol at the adult dose twice a day to help. Her not eating may be from the worms. Check all the rest of your goats too, they serve as a source of reinfection. Her temp going up probably indicates some sort of infection. Could be uterine, could be respiratory (goats that lay down alot are very prone to pneumonia). I would start her on Naxcel at 1 cc per 50 pounds twice a day. You can use plain yogurt in place of the probios (probiotics) give 2 to 4 tablespoons by drench.
Feeding the kids is putting quite a drain on her. You might consider taking 2 and leaving her with one so she doesn't pine for them.
