Hey everyone,
I'm hoping to get some proven advice on this issue.
I use Toltrazuril for coccidia, whether to prevent or treat. The issue is, apparently it burns, and didn't know that until I mistakenly got some in my mouth while battling one of my goats to get the meds in her. And now i know...
Her bottom jaw got a little bump since her goatee started coming in about 2 months ago if I remember correctly. I’ve been always checking if swollen and all I feel is her hair. And I’m doing routine fecals too, because I had my suspicions. But thankfully they’ve been coming back clean.
I took a picture of her the other day, and I kept telling myself there's something not right about her face, but I couldn't just figure out what. Today when I saw her mouth, I could tell that in that picture her upper gum is swollen. Take a look.
I had no idea goats replaced teeth. I just looked it up after your comment, and it says goats drop the front 2 teeth around 12 months and replace them with permanent ones. I hope that's all what it is, I just can't be sure right now, also I'm not sure if that explains the swollen upper gum.
Hi All,
Please see pictures, I tried to take the best pictures I could with her cooperating. I have not noticed this before. Behavior is as usual. Looks like she lost a tooth at some point, another is crooked, and her upper gum is not looking ok. It has close to what could be bluish coloration...
