Aw, thank you @Senile_Texas_Aggie . I'll do my best to act naturally.
I have a great vet. Yesterday I found Dignity, Eri, my one mature dwarf doe's daughter laying in the hay under a rack looking floppy. I took her into the garage and she hada 107.5 temp. I worked with the vet over text and we got it down to 104 with meds on hand, no cost to me and little cost in time to her. Fingers crossed. She's a very nice nigerian doeling (with the typical nigerian attitude unfortunately). Goat body temp should be 102-103, so 104 isn't awful. More antibiotic, banamine, and b12 for her today. My baby was also being crabby, and I needed to make dinner, but somehow it all got done (including a bonus of DH installing a couple of window units to tide us over until we get our splits/mini splits installed).
