Thank you so much. :D

Thank you and my apologies for mistaking your tone. I felt attacked by the way you worded your response. I read it as "its folks like me... Causing parasites to become resistant." The only reason I asked this question is bevause I have read about lungworm and almost everything i have read says...

Ok, thank you. :)

Thank you so much for being so helpful! I considered their temps normal due to the rate of accuracy of the thermometer I use. Her condition hasn't changed (no better, no worse) so I think we are going to go ahead and try some antibiotics. Hopefully it will kick whatever is going on. :fl Thanks...

First off, I never once said I was going to worm them. I simply asked if I should, so there is no need for your belittling. Second, I am not seeing "indications of infection." Temps are normal and the little bit of discharge (if it's not just water from drinking/grazing on damp grass) is clear...

We just got a Nigerian Dwarf Doe Friday. We were told she is estimated to be 8-11months old. We noticed that evening she had a cough. Her temp is 103.7 and she has no other symptoms. Her nose may be a little running but it's clear if it is (maybe just wet nose from water?). She's eating and...
