Larsen Poultry Ranch
Herd Master
Hey all, I don't have a ton of details yet but my boyfriend called me about one of the young goats in our herd (born April/May) having a swollen jaw and acting lethargic. My immediate thought was parasites as I wasn't finding much else it could be in searching this site.
We treated for parasites using a pour-on within the last two months. I am trying to get specific info as to what we used and the actual date. I believe it's one of the wethers.
I want to take the goat to a vet to get a fecal test and meds, but am worried about cost, is that the best plan? Any suggestions?
