It has been going on for a few days now, she has been eating more hay now that the grass has died off from the recent frost. She has already been dewormed, I will check the name of it to see if it should have worked for tapeworms, too.

That very well could be it.
If you suspect tapes the only thing I know of that is really effective for tapes is Fenbedazole 10% (Saf-Gaurd) it is approved for goats.
My one vet says 9ml per 100lbs 3 days in a row. Has worked for us rather well. We have a bajillion lizards, skinks, and toads so that is one worm we do deal with. :rolleyes:
