Sorry you lost her. Please don't blame this one yourself. I had an doe die a few weeks ago for no apparent reason and UC Davis found nothing. The next week I lost a 5mo. old kid; no signs, just dead. Davis said probably a selenium deficiency.

The only thing I can think of that would kill that quickly is enterotoxemia but that wouldn't explain the blood in the urine. However the rest sound really familiar. Was she vaccinated. Maybe she was injured by another goat, they can pretty vicious with those head buts at time.

I keep oxcytet, penicillin, C&D antitoxin, and banamine on hand for my immediate have to have drugs.
