Herbal treatment

Sweetheart is my boss doe, very greedy, she can block an 8 foot feeder full of grain, and she did. Now she has acidosis, not bad, just doesn't want to eat and is not chewing her cud, that is bad. Have been cutting browse and bringing it to her and she is picking through some of it. Decided to ride her down to the woods and let her pick her own medicine. She ate a few things, mostly roamed through the woods. But, the ride made her nervous and she pooped big pellets, so all is normal there. Her mother was the boss doe until she got old, then Sweetheart took over the job , looks like she will stay in her own personal pen and there will be a new boss doe.
