I have a Nigerian buck that needs more help. He, and one doe, were pale. diarrhea, and losing weight, I was treating with Red Cell. Spectogard, and vite B shots, Lab tested high for bankrupt worms. So, I wormed with Quest, and then 3 straight days of Safeguard. The doe has cleared up, just still giving her some Red Cell to get more color back. The buck has not. He's acting a bit perkier, but still splatting poop, Still giving him the meds.

Any other suggestions?

You might want to refecal and prepare to re treat depending on findings, or you could just skip to re treating and hope it works. Maybe a different wormer? Ivermectin Plus is a good standby for me. The "plus" gets liver flukes that often don't even show up on fecals (only sheds eggs as adults, but can cause sickness whenever). Valbazen maybe?

I hope you can figure out how to get him out of his tailspin.
