Do any of you faithful blog readers remember
this post???? Well it seems as though cold weather welcomes worms into our newly cleaned goat stalls...
This past week we've "welcomed" (not at all willingly) another case of worms and this time they decided to feast on our best milker... Ugh.

Finding our dear Fiddle goat to have the exact same
symptoms as Allegro her cousin doe did last year... we began to treat her for
Coccidia. Thankfully, we were able to catch this dilima before the goat "went down".
Now Fiddle "enjoys" (again not willingly) getting her Sulfadimethoxine (30 cc orally)-- everyday, Super B Complex (1.5 ml, IM)--everyday, and Probiotics (1cc, orally)--everyday. Thankfully, we gave her a does of the Doramectin Antiparasitic (Sub-Q) already!

One of our favorite book recommendations:
