Coming around

The returning goats went through a rough few days, especially this black buck kid. He was crying, dehydrated, had a high fever, no cud chewing and no appetite. Hit all of them with sulfa drugs for shipping fever and coccidia, which requires catching each one of them three days in a row and orally drenching them. Then the buck kid and his mom were hit with all the vitamins and probiotics I could think of. Yesterday he started chewing a cud and tail was back up and wagging and his back not arched up. Today he has been eating on leaves everytime I check them. I think a little goat can survive off fresh trees. He and his brother have the does udder back in working order and getting a little milk and a lot of comfort. I think they will be alright. But that is what it takes when things are off, round the clock care, and sometimes it works.
